CC700 did an excellent review on the Rambler also!

EDIT: A nice bag is one of the last things on my list though. A helmet, new saddle, clipless pedals and shoes, and a front brake is on my somewhat URGENT list.
Oh yeah, they aren't really great for ventilation. My 10 minute ride every morning at 7:15 gets me hot enough you can almost see the sweat.

That makes me want to explore ortlieb, actually. It's always good to have more than one bag, I guess.
