Have a CourierWare Deluxe. Lots of pockets and it's held up very well. But the strap is a pain to use,and almost impossible with thick gloves. It leaked in any steady rain;I had to seal the seam that runs across the top(it goes right through into the inside of the bag) and hose the outside down with CampDry(liner is not waterproof either). And I had to add a sternum strap of my own devising to keep it in place when I stand on the pedals. I see they now offer a second strap as an option,but until they upgrade the liner and eliminate/redesign the top seam,I can't see spending the money on one of these unless you live in the desert.
