Leaning into a curve at speed and hit the bag on the road will spin the bike and throw you off for sure.

edit: looks like standard Tara and Frontrollers on 26” wheels, neh? So can’t be as weird as the picture looks
It’s perspective. The bike has a Tara rack and is a 700C equipped bike. There’s plenty of room. The bike has been down a whole lot of very fast, very curvy descents. Here’s a picture from a flatter angle.
