I was looking for a medium size pack to carry reflective rain gear, a bike lock, tools, spare tube etc. I selected this bag because of the 1" wide reflective striping around the sides as compared to the narrow striping of most others. I believe a rider should be as visible as possible to drivers and this meets that need in a stylish way. The bag anchors well to my carrier rack with HD velcro and is easily removed if the need arises. It has plenty of extra storage space should I need room to carry a few items from the store without being a large bulky mass on the back of the bike.

Fine Product so far

Additional straps, etc. are needed to supplement the supplied Velcro connections, secure the bag, and keep it from sliding off the rack, especially when loaded. The various attachment points make this modification pretty easy. The bag itself is well laid out and a good compromise between a small carrier or basket and some of the larger packs that can get in the way and are meant for multi-day trips. With the fold-out panniers, a fair amount of groceries can be carried. The panniers should be used together, since one alone exerts enough force to pull the bag towards that size. The reflective fabric strips are worthwhile for traffic. This is a very good bag for the price. The illustration appears to be the somewhat smaller Toploader 1.
