I've used the Ducksback, the Pro Route and (currently) the cheap Campmor and I must say that, for warmer temps, the Campmore is more bearable than the other, heavier ones. It does blow around a bit more because of its light weight, and the thigh loops are annoying alternatives to waist straps, but it works. (We do get the occasional shower here in ABQ; the Campmor kept me dry from neck to knees once in a half hour ride against a howling 3/4 headwind blowing a SW downpour that filled our access road 2' deep in an hour.
