I last purchased this in 2014. I finally (2024) ripped a few threads that hold the seat post velcro on, likely I could probably just sew it back on, but just gonna buy a new one. Its held up really well, 1000's of miles with this thing on. From short winter rides where I want more clothing to long summer rides where I bring a small lunch this thing has been with me. I know it looks a little goofy and oversized but it beats a backpack.

Stuff leggings and 2 rain jackets and snacks when touring. Can get heavy and might brush legs depending on seat, let’s, stuffing. Great product.

This is a great saddle bag for longer trips. I love that it's waterproof, and it can hold everything I need. Currently, it's packed with a light jacket, sunscreen, bug spray, multi-tool, spare tube, tire levers, pump, snacks, poncho, phone, and charger with room to spare. It fits easily onto my bike and doesn't sag.

It looks a lot nicer in the picture than it does in real life. It is made out of some nice materials and is pretty heavy duty, but it is pretty clunky. It also sways a ton and isn't that secure.

I was very disappointed with the quality of this bag and the customer service provided by banjo brothers. While I liked this bag in general, it broke twice on me.The first time, one of the straps on the back that I attached a blinky to broke just a few days after I started using it. I contacted the company and they sent me a shipping label to return it for repair. However, since this didn't render the bag unusable (I attached the strap with a safety pin), I decided not to send it back at that time because I didn't want to be without a bag for my commute.The second time (about 6 months after I got the bag), the main strap that holds the bag closed broke in half, making the bag unusable. I contacted the company again and the guy said to send it back but they wouldn't provide shipping. He was a complete JERK about it too. I refused to send a bag back that was only 6 months old and had already broken twice (who knows what the next thing to break on it will be) and potentially have to pay for the repair as well.So rather than pay for the shipping back, I bought a strap and some clasps to put it back together myself. I'll keep using this bag for now but I will NEVER buy anything from banjo brothers again. They claim that they have an excellent warranty service but in my experience, they sucked.

I bought this to use for gravel grinders and multi-terrain rides (like the D2R2 in Massachusetts). I wanted something that could hold not just a spare inner tube and CO2 cartridges, but also a rain jacket, tool kit, spare parts, medical kit, some food, etc. for self-contained riding in remote locations, and I wanted it to be waterproof. I like the size of this, and it holds everything I want it to, but there are some drawbacks:1. The waterproof insert seems a bit thick and heavy, and takes up a lot of space.2. The waterproof insert is open ended and merely folds closed. It needs a drawstring or wet-bag type closure to make it truly waterproof.3. The external tool pocket is very small, and holds a multi-tool and patch kit, at best. Might be nice to have a bit more space or another external pocket.4. The side strap clips that attach the bag to your saddle can come lose when riding in rugged terrain— and in fact one of them popped off when I was cinching down the bag onto my saddle. It would really be better to have quick release buckles that snap together rather than these "press-down" style clips that open up too easily.5. No external straps or places to attach a strap to hold, say, a rain jacket or other clothing.Other than these cons, the bag is well made and seems to be a great bag for the price. The stiff insert keeps the bag from sagging, even with a heavy load. However, if you need something more rugged that can withstand trail-riding or lots of bouncing up and down, I'd look at other brands like Revelate or Timbuk2 because of the side-strap attachment system.

awesome bag especially for long rides, or the changing seasons. Borrowed a friends to use on RAGBRAI and fell in love with it! I like that it's easy to remove so I don't have to carry a huge bag around all of the time. I can fit my mini pump, extra glasses, flat kit, snacks AND a rain jacket, all tucked inside. Rode in a down pore, and everything inside stayed dry.

I used one on Ride the Rockies and it was great compared to any other product I saw.It held my raingear, spare tire, etc. well with lots of room.There is a waterproof, but open eneded inner bag.The waterproof inner bag is clunky and could be made of ligher weight with a means to close.Since the back is open closes only with a strap, a drawstring on the inner bag would be helpful.The tool pocket is too small.
