This thing's fantastic. I wanted a bag that I could wear running as well as biking, and this has worked out very, very well for me.

Features that I like for cycling:
    Very comfortable fit, with the waist strap always out of the way.
    Removable "skin" for holding your helmet.
    LOTS of Reflex for great visibility.

Running features that I like:
    Hip supports are small but effective.
    Strapping allows very little movement, even when fully loaded.

General features that I like:
    Built-in pocket for up to 3L hydration sac.
    Built-in raincover.
    Back support is mesh over a curved frame, providing full support while letting your back breathe.

I costs more than a traditional daypack, but it's still cheaper than other brands like Osprey or Sierra Designs. I paid $90CDN for mine, and it's been worth every cent.
