The Bagman looks like it keeps the load a little lower and the SQR looks like it rides up higher on the saddle. The Bagman now has a quick release version which is appealling. If the Bagman is the way to go would you go with the Sport (smaller) or Expedition (larger) with the Nelson? Thanks for any and all input.
I'd go with the Expedition for a Nelson, but I find that a small rear rack works just fine and gives you a bit more
flexibility,
