"This is the best quality pack I have ever purchased - for any sport.
It does what it is supposed to and more and looks good doing it.

Quality of Construction
Stitching is solid. One of the zippers catches, but otherwise top quality materials and construction.
Fit
Fits comfortably, like a well built hiking/climbing pack. Fits close to body and allows easy riding or walking. Padded straps are very comfortable and waist belt secures everything in place.
Comfort
Extremely comfortable, even when fully loaded.
Adjustability
Lots of ways to adjust, no issues.
Durability
Still brand new after one busy, wet season. One zipper is a little tricky.
Value
Worth the purchase.
Appearance
Got lots of looks at transition...that is a good sign. this bag looks good and has cool slogans on it.
Customer Service
Got e-mail form Rocket Science Sports president, no issues, pack arrived by mail without blood loss.
Performance
Does everything it is supposed to do and more. It is a little heavy, but that speaks to its durability. This will outlast me most likely.
Strengths
Multiple labeled compartments are well placed. Includes transition mat and waterproof cover.
Wetsuit compartment is removable and roomy.
Looks great.
Very comfortable.
Carry handle good for hanging (and carrying).
Handy external cell phone case - If you always want your phone beside you, I suppose.
Lined glasses compartment is a good idea.
Opens and hangs/or lies flat.
Weakness
A little heavy, but this isn't designed to be worn for a long trek.
Fully loaded pack doesn't have lots of extra room for wet clothes/towel that is separate from the dry compartments. There are places to stow stuff, but a little makeshift.
But this is a transition pack, not a hiking pack, so it isn't a big deal.

Ease of use
This bag fits everything and has labels for everything so it is easy to remember not to forget a thing. Even size 11 shoes (runners and bike) fit easily in their compartments and leave room to put extras in - like swim cap, goggles, etc.
This is a packrat's dream with room for everything that you will need on race day and the portability to ride with it to the transition to set up.
The removable wetsuit compartment is pretty slick and doubles as a cold bag (my discovery) or laptop container - you can actually purchase an optional laptop sleeve.
There is lots of room for nutrition stuff, lucky charms and things you might find at the beach and want to take home. There is even a soft sunglass/glass pouch for your delicate specs.
The pack is very easy to use and to wear and can easily double for other duties, although it is a little heavy.
