If you've got a small frame or very little seatpost showing, you'll need to use a smaller bag (e.g. Lowsaddle Longflap, Barley, etc). The OP isn't planning to take much stuff to begin with, so one of these smaller bags would likely be perfect for him.
That's interesting, I hadn't known about the QR support. Nice idea, I might try one of those myself.
doughboy, with one of these attachments I'd definitely favour a saddlebag over a beam rack...
