I have had my topeak trunk bag for over a year, and it works fine no problems.

I just added this Topeak rack and bag only to discover a slight rattle after installing the bag on the rack. Has anyone had this issue and come up? Any adjustments or fixes out there?
Love the bag and all about it’s utility, but the slight rattle is not gonna cut it. If I figure out a fix, I will post up.
Thanks in advance.

Self-adhesive Velcro

I had a slight rattle on mine too. I put a length of the hook side of self-adhesive Velcro down the middle of the rack and the rattle was gone.

Perfect fix, no more rattle Thanks Ragnar!

I've had my Topeak for about a year-and-a-half now and I've learned to just ignore the rattle. To put your mind at ease, mine has never fallen off, or even come loose. It's a great bag and rack combo, isn't it?

Glad to see this thread. I was mulling over choices in another thread and chose the Topeak.

I've had my bag for more than six years and I'm very happy with it. My rack is a special by Topeak for Scott and my dear wife has an Explorer rack on her dutch-style 3-speed. Between us we have the trunk bag, the rear wire basket, the Trolley Tote and a home-brew.

When my local grocer switched out his shopping baskets a couple of years ago, he sold out the old ones for next to nothing. I grabbed a bunch to use for storage in the garage. I've put an MTX "sliding-and-clicking" thingy on one and use it when I go grocery shopping.

Very nice! I'm going to have to remember that those are available to buy and attach to things.

So I can put one of those Fixer 6 thingies on my work briefcase and attach it to my rack**********

Nnnnnnaaah, never mind. I just checked it out further and it's only for the basket you showed. PSYCH!!!!
