Ortlieb Downtown or Ortlieb office bag

Hello,

This is my first actual post so have mercy please.

I am looking at the Ortlieb Downtown or the Ortlieb office bag. The Downtown looks better, it would be sleeker on the bike as far as limiting the width, and also works as a better messenger bag. The cons are of course the size. I am not sure if it would be too small or what the draw backs would be.

The Office bag is larger and better organized, but it is boxier and heavier. I don't want it to mess with my ride.

I travel 16 miles, I take a note book or two, a book or two, a change of clothes, and my small lunch. It fits well in a backpack but I must move on. Also, I need, in the off chance my computer fails at work, to carry a laptop once or twice a month.

Thanks
