I still disagree, but there we go, guess it depends how much you are carrying. I was hostelling so had to carry pretty much nothing. Certainly a friend who has done trips with both panniers and a pack thought that a pack was the way to go. It might not be more comfortable but I certainly think it is more efficient. Something to do with having to exert force on the bike (way out of my depth).
Besides, my bike does not have rack mounts :|
