The Slicks Travel System, a modular backpack designed to adapt to users’ changing needs, has been something of a Kickstarter success story, raising five times its target of 80,000 Swiss francs long before its deadline of 4 March 2016.
We’ve been sent out the 'yellow' version of the Slicks – the yellow actually refers to the Slicks logo stripe at the bottom of the bag with additional reflective detailing, a nice touch if your primary intended purpose is – like mine – commuting on the bike.
Organise yourself
One of the first things you’ll notice is that this bag doesn’t have the top zip style of many other rucksacks. The suitcase style opening fully gives away what this bag is meant for – organised travelling.

The additional reflective detailing on the yellow version is a must-have if you’re commuting on the bike
Via its Kickstarter, the Slicks has been available in a number of options. The basic pledge (£132 / $189) gets you just the backpack, which will retail for £160 / $229. Next tier up, the Slicks Suit (£160 / $229 on Kickstarter; £195 / $279 retail) features – yes you guessed it – a foldable suit cover. We went for the next option (£188 / $269 on Kickstarter; £230 / $329 retail) is the Slicks TRIP – a must have to get the most of out the system, in my opinion. (There's also a BIZ option combining the SUIT and TRIP.)
