Pros

  • Side Kick is my every day carry, but when I need a bigger bag I jump to the Parental Unit, which I love the organization and flexibility of. ... When I travel I clip the Side Kick to the back panel of the Synik so I can swap between the...
  • 2. Side Kick is our daily diaper bag now
  • Tom Bihn side kick. It's not the most trendy, but it is a tried and true design, and the black ballistic version is unassuming for travel. Reviews are endlessly stellar for how useful this little 3L sling is.
  • I would upgrade to the Tom Bihn Side Kick (this, btw is the sling I use the most. So if I had to get just one, I'd get this).
  • I prefer the TB Side Kick and the Side Hustle because they're just a bit bigger and they don't flip over.

Cons

  • The Tom Bihn Side Kick or Side Hustle would be closer equivalents of the Rickshaw Banzai.
  • Tom Bihn Side Kick: 9.6" (w) x 7.5" (h) x 2.8" (d) / 245 (w) x 190 (h) x 70 (d) mm
  • I had the side hustle first and tried the side kick as a smaller carry and didn’t like it because it felt too crammed.

You could upsize to the Tom Bihn Side Kick, which I also like, but since my stuff can fit in the smaller Side Effect I prefer it, as it makes a better sling, sidebag, and fanny.

The side effect is too small for me to use as a sling, but the side kick is great.
