Pros and Cons

Pros5

The price is unbeatable. The brand packaging design is also well thought-out. The style is reminiscent of high-quality bags.

This saddle bag is roomy. It is easy-to-clean material, making it a practical choice for any cyclist.

This one fits snugly under the seat without looking bulky. It secures well to the saddle, and looks great, too. My only suggestion is to cut the velcro excess off once you’ve cinched it tight.

Detachable top compartment is also deceptively spacious. Main bag area has plenty of room and is expandable.

If you get one of these make a handle that uses the clasps on each end. It has a little cinchable bungee cord that goes in the finger groove of your water bottle to keep it from bouncing out. The bag doesn't clothe well, but it doesn't hurt either.

Cons2

The benefits of the topeak attachment system to the *consumer* are dubious. The heavy plastic proprietary attachment hardware adds a great deal of unnecessary weight to this bag. Maybe it's prohibitively expensive?

You have to velcro the straps around the frame and this is where the frustration stated. No velcro loops or places to thread straps or bungees. The silver stripes on the side and rear of the bag have rough and grainy surfaces, the pannier stripe does ...  Read More
