Eco-friendly alternatives to the individual mobility by car, like bike and train, are growing more and more common... especially in metropolitan areas. A backpack is the perfect companion for such an urban lifestyle. Style and functionality are key elements here, as for many commuters the backpack is part of their outfit. In Ergon's preliminary research Ergon came to realize that no manufacturer puts the right emphasis on a back-friendly, ergonomically correct carrying system – despite the fact, that such urban utility packs often need to carry high loads. This is where the BC Urban comes into play, improving upon these deficits dramatically – and does so with plenty of style.
As known from Ergon, the torso length is 4-way adjustable and provides a perfect fit. The wide detachable hip belt transfers the load onto the hip and adds stability. Formable alloy rails inside the back plate allow for a very precise adjustment to the individual shape of your back. Its carrying comfort is so good, that the BC Urban was warranted the seal of quality called “Campaign for Healthier Backs“ by the Association Forum Healthy Back – Better Living and Federal Association of German Back Schools
The pack‘s cover is bluesign® certified, water resistant and is made of 39 recycled 0.5 litres PET bottles. The main compartment is easily accessible through the full-width roll-down closure. Additionally the BC Urban features a removable notebook pouch (up to 15“) and a useful Cargostrap (for carrying parcels) making it the perfect companion for urban everyday life.
Features:
At DASH, we've created a Cycle to Work enabled storefront which allows you to browse and order a range of items, all whilst benefitting from savings of 28-47%. The cost of items you order is split into 12 months and deducted from your gross (or pre-tax) salary, allowing you to save on income tax and national insurance contributions, which is called salary sacrifice. After 12 months, you'll be able to continue using your items at no extra cost.
We have a range of items, from bikes and e-bikes, to accessories (such as helmets and locks), bike parts and tools, clothing (including jackets, shorts, shoes, and everything in between), even pre-owned bikes. We work with a range of brands so there's sure to be something you like in stock.
Since we are a Cycle to Work scheme ourselves, we cannot accept vouchers from other scheme providers. If you would like to use DASH and already have a voucher, it might be worth speaking to your employer to see if they are able to refund it.
