i've found that they distribute the weight better if you're riding with drop handlebars.
what annoys me about riding with a backpack mostly, though, is the amazing amount of sweat that accumulates under it. with a messenger bag, it's not as bad. actually i don't mind so much while i'm riding--it's when i take the thing off my back and my shirt makes contact with my back again, nice and cold....ew.
