a while ago i was riding home in the pouring rain 2 nights in a row and the second night i got home to find that water had soaked in through the threads in the back between the straps and soaked into a magazine i had in the bag. i also found water in the front pocket with my tools. has anyone else had this problem in really heavy rain? i was under the impression that the vinyl liner made it rainproof. i usually carry a laptop and camera gear and i was lucky this time...is there any way to seal up the offending seams? i've already emailed reload with no reply.

i really thought i paid a ton of cash for a bag i could trust....wtf?
