Any one use this for bike commuting?

I do not use it for biking, just for hiking. It is very small and not heavy duty. I keep a flashlight, sunscreen, bug repellent, water, and a pencil bag with pens along with a few other things in it and it does fine. I have more room, but not a lot.

I didn't use it for commuting on a regular basis but used it while biking on vacation. It is very small and not really heavy duty. But if you're just carrying some light stuff, should be good.

It has worked great for Me. I do not use it for mountatin use though. It is on my commuter bike. It definitely seems to be well built.

Have you tried this product yet for cycling? I'm getting this as a gift for a cyclist...

I should probably preface my comment by saying I'm not super knowledgeable about bikes, but yeah I think you should be good as long as you're not planning on going off road. The portability of this thing is great. I stash it in my car and bring it up to my campus from the parking garage below every day. It unfolds quickly and collapses easily. Just keep in mind that the front reflected can snap off like a twig so be prepared to replace with another one.

Hey kevin. I think its just good enough. I haven't had a chance to use mine yet but of the same thinking. As long as I keep it with me and on my back while transporting it it should be ok...hope that helps

I have never used it for bicycling, only running, but it should be able to compute speed and distance travelled regardless of whether you are running or on a bike.

Yes, I use mine on a road bike and find it very useful. I carry multi-tool, spare tube/repair kit.

I use it on my bike (Cannondale T800) which has drop handlebars. It's a bit of a squeeze and it does bump the cables when I take it on and off, but it works for me.

Sorry, don't know the answer to either question as I only use it on my commute.

It almost depends on what type of bike you have. But that being said I have a commuter style bike and your legs do kind of have to go "out" a little more when you pedal. It's not bad though, it just takes some getting used to.

I use this weekly. I feel like using it on a bike would be really awkward. It's basiclly a really big murse.

I would say no, It would be fine for an occasional commute, but for a regular 15 mile commute no. There is only one gear, and it is low so hills are quite a workout. and the seat is very firm and the tires are 20 inch so there is no suspension so you feel the road. If you are going to regularly commute 15 miles get one with a more comfortable seat and larger tires.

I have ridden under light and heavy rain and it works properly! But I avoided pushing the buttons... just in case!

You could but it might be overkill. Bag is large and unless its a fat tire bike with a large rack I think it's going to mess with your ride

This unit is best for rider to passenger communication, not bike to bike because the range is limited. The Scala Rider Q3 or G9 are better choices. Thanks for askingFrank

I've ridden my bike and walked with it, but not run. It might be a little awkward, because it's pretty big. But it's lightweight and has good straps and padding, so it's not out of the question.

Hi James, I would recommend using it. You might be able to get away without it, but it sure makes life easier and keeps the weight of the bikes more evenly distributed.
