I picked up my ORI commuter bag today. Added a buckle to the seatpost loop instead of using the velcro strap. It seems much faster to attach/detach this way.
I think the size is right. Here it is partially filled with:
Book (for train ride) - Lunch Box - Clean Shirt.
Rainpants
pump.
With room to spare.
