I have read alot of similar testimonials. That's the other reason I just had to try it.
Question: Do you guys who exlusively use bags have racks on your bikes? If I really get to liking the messenger bag, I might want to remove the rear rack. Only problem is that my reflector is attached to the rack. Hmm, on second thought, if I'm going to go with the rolled-up my right pant leg and decorate my bike with spoke cards, then I probably shouldn't have a rear reflector anyway.
