I am too much of a minimalist to haul such huge carpet bag around these days though

But I have to wonder why? The big saddle bag seems inherently floppy, high up, possibly awkward. I just wonder whats the attraction.

For the most part, my big black bag does stay home. But if going out for a full day of leisurely riding, where extra water, lunch, camera and other gear and clothing is or could be needed, a big bag is nice. I have fitted a piece of egg-crate foam in the bottom of mine. It has really helped with the stiffness of the bottom, helps keep things from rolling around, and makes a nice cushion for things like a phone or camera. I'd even put my laptop in there.
The bag is very stable. The backs of my thighs do come in contact with the front side, but it is not an annoyance. With the Park Rack underneath, the bag really stays put.
