Picture is deceiving of actual size.

This bag should be shown mounted on a bike for a more realistic evaluation if it would be the right bag for you. I sent it back and got the Topeak MTX Trunk Bag DX which is much larger.

Nice commuter bag

I have found the bag to very functional and it works well with the rail attachment. I would prefer if an even larger version was available. Especially the panniers could be larger and longer.

Warning!! This bag is really small!!

yes I know, I read that it was just over 1,000 cu inches. But this bag is really small and the picture doesnt do it justice. A better picture would be of the bag on the bike, with some frame of reference.
I was planning on using it for commuting, but there is no chance that I could get work clothes (think sweater and pants) and lunch into this. Its really small. I got lucky and had a friend who was looking for just such and bag and was able to sell it to him rather than send it back.

The expandable panniers are probably the smallest panniers on the market, and should probably be referred to as expandable pockets, because one is just barely large enough to hold a stuffed down rain jacket.
This would be suitable if you were looking to ride somewhere with a 6 pack, and maybe a paperback and some snacks.
The quality is very good and the integration with the TopPeak rack system is great. However, its really small and not suitable for commuting unless you dont have to take hardley anything with you.
