Perhaps I have been unclear. I have saddlebags. I have used numerous, from Lezyne, Arundel, Aeroclam, you name it. I currently do not run a bag under the saddle on any of my bikes. Why? I don't like them.
My biggest frame has 8.5" of seatpost showing. Throw a pound under a saddle sitting 9-10" above the frame, and it's that inverted pendulum effect. I can feel the weight. I DON'T LIKE IT. I have other options. I choose those.
