Some have asked why I need so much capacity for a bike bag. It's because of the commute conditions here, especially in the spring and fall.

Mornings: cold, often windy.
Afternoon: warm, balmy, often dark

Morning bag load:
bike light
light battery
lunch
regular bike gloves

Evening load:
goretex pants
fleece/base layer
heavy winter gloves with gauntlet
windbreaker, about 1/2 of the time

The combo of pants,fleece and winter gloves eats a log of volume. With the previous bag I had to bungee something on the outside with the common, opps a sleeve is flapping or rubbing.

Anyway thanks for listening.
