I agree 100%.
This is my setup for days where I go to the disc golf course, gym & work. Keeps me cooler than a backpack and doesn't add a ton of weight. I mean I notice it, but my bike still feels like a fast and agile road bike. Plus I kind of just view it as training, makes leisure rides with no bag feel easier.
No idea what the hell people are stuffing in dual panniers for a commute. I put two changes of clothes, food, wallet, keys, phone, repair kit & a few disc golf discs in there. Still have room leftover for after work grocery runs.
