Ergon BA3 E Protect

EMTB 013 e mountainbike rucksack test backpack review 47 1140x760

The Ergon BA3 E Protect is based on the same concept as the Ergon BA2 Protect, but offers more capacity with 15 litres. It also relies on the battery holder with the diagonal Velcro straps, which hold batteries securely in place, but also limits the storage space inside. The Koblenz-based manufacturer has given the backpack more internal pockets, so there is a padded sunglasses pocket in the main compartment.

In addition, the BA3 has five instead of four mesh pockets for tools in the outer compartment and two additional zipped pockets, one of which is for the rain cover. Like the smaller B23, the large BA3 is limited in space for long batteries. Action vloggers also have to do without the fixed GoPro mount. The large Ergon BA3 E Protect can also be adjusted for back length and convinces with a good fit and good ventilation.
