Are there any additional ways to access the main compartment other than the top of the pack?

Yes, the first and longest zipper allows you access to the main compartment.

There is a fantastic amount of access to the entire bag from the front. There are several pockets, mesh retainers, and storage on the front. The largest, outermost zipper on the front section zips all the front storage away exposing about a 2 foot long access to the entire inside of the bag. It's very convenient.

Yes. The big front section zips and folds down, and there is a mesh panel behind that that zips in half to access the main compartment.The "top" and "front" access points do not connect like in a travel pack.FWIW, I only use the top opening and have never used this front access part

Yes, the large front compartment unzips into a mesh panel, that can also be unzipped to access main compartment of pack.

Yes- the front of the pack also zips open and folds down- almost like a luggage piece- so you can access the main compartment from the front of the pack.

there isn't a small compartment on top unfortunately. the top just opens into the main area. there isn't a great place just for sunglasses if that's a priority for you. hope it works out!

No. There is, however, a sort of chest strap that connects the two pack straps at the front. About chest high.

There is a zip strip at the top on the front side of the bag. To be honest I cut mine open too and then found the opening.

There isn't a separate compartment. There is just the main compartment that would fit bats (and helmets and gloves, etc).

It has 2 compartments. One large and one that has a separate zipper that is on top of the first. The second compartment is kind of ackward since the zipper is underneath. You cannot access it without opening the the compartment first.

I'd say no, there is access but the opening is smaller than the basket. I can get my diaper bag in but it's impossible to pull out.

There is a side pocket zipper along the full lenth of the pack, inside is a hanger loop near the top so you can mount camelbak bladders, and near the bottom is velcro so you can put their holster inside. It is not connected to the main access. I use a 3L camelbak bladder in mine.

double zipper around both parts (the main storage area and the smaller front pouch)

Its accessed by opening the bag and unziiping from the inside. Also, no ports.

The front pouch can be locked and comes with a key. The main zipped compartment can also be locked, but you will need to furnish your own lock and key.

There are "2" compartments in the main zipper section. (I left out the '2' in my initial response.)

Under the main a little way up on the left side there is a Velcro thing to open. It may be hard to find and open but you can feel for it.

There is a hood/pouch that sits on top of the main opening. It stays locked down over the main opening via the two vertical silver straps with buckles that go almost the entire height of the bag. Look closely for the vertical seam looking thing between the silver straps at the top of the bag- thats where the flap/pouch thing lifts up.

This link has the manual which shows how to open the compartment: http://www.jjc.cc/internal/UpFile/20107161427401.pdf

I do not believe you ca lock the main compartments. There is a velcro flap that allows you to hold the cord which connects the two zippers, but it is only velcro and prohibits spills only. I do have small padlocks on all the other zippers.

yeah, a little tricky. There's a small tab to the left, just move it out a little and the compartment will open up. Others have had the same problem.
