Have any small-framed people out there have used the small version of this backpack? If so, does it feel clunky? Does it ride up on your shoulders when you are on your bike?I'm about 5'2" with a narrow frame. Currently I used a rinky-dink 15" backpack which fits me awesomely but cannot hold enough. I am nervous about comfort with a larger size.Any tips greatly appreciated...

The length of the small Urban Backpack is 20" (measured mine this morning) when rolled up. I'm 5'10" so I can't speak of how it fits someone shorter, but it isn't a typical backpack requiring a wastebelt (although it does have a 1" piece of webbing used as a wastebelt, but can be removed). The newer version has a very comfortable yoke and shoulder straps, along with a solid frame make this a very comfortable pack to carry. I like the look of the pack and how easy it is to access stuff in and out (being fully waterproof is a bonus). The construction is top notch, the best I've ever seen in terms of clean lines and solid welds. My recommendation if your still concerned is order it and then if it doesn't fit, backcountry will take it back. Fit is very important...
