Pablo, the Raptor is not the right pack for urban commuting. Try the Momentum 26 or the Metron 25. Both have sweet raincovers and awesome features for the bike commuter. ENJOY!!

The Osprey Manta series of packs come with an included rain cover that stuffs into a pocket at the bottom of the pack. Check those out. I have the 20L and I love it.

its made of pretty dense denier nylon, so it will be highly water resistant, but not to the point where i would trust it with my laptop/work papers in there. you could always get a small pack cover that will be waterproof. on the other hand, this is more of a day hiking or biking hydration pack since it is compatible with hydration bladders and has a pretty substantial hip belt and pretty rugged suspension/frame. you may want to search this sight for laptop, commuter or carry-on bags. or check the link below. its for a pack made for your purposes...also by osprey...and cheaper. http://www.backcountry.com/osprey-packs-flapjack-pack-1500cu-in
