I own a Bailey Works Super Pro myself. It's got the large cargo space, two front pockets (one with pen holders), outer side "bottle" sized pocket. Two inner corner pockets, an inner center pocket and one zipper pocket.

I love my bag. I use it most of the time even when i'm not on my bike. Photography is one of my hobbies and my lenses fit in those corner pockets just right, so I use it for that too since it's much easier to swing around than a photo backpack. The huge reflective strip on the back helps me feel a little more safe in traffic at night too.
+1 on the bailey works. I just got mine in the mail 2 weeks ago and I LOVE IT. It stays put, has tons of room, and is really comfortable. I took my panniers off my bike unless I head to the grocery store for lots of groceries. I had a timbuk2 and I hated it immensely when I was using it for commuting. Damn thing wouldn't stay put. Bailey works shipped incredibly fast and the bag is super waterproof and sturdy. Go for it!
