Hey guys, I've been looking at decent sized messenger bags to fit my 17" laptop plus other bits. I narrowed it down to the Chrome Metropolis bag and Crank Brothers Messenger Fully Monty bag. It is about 70 bucks cheaper but I can't find any reliable sources for more pictures or reviews. I am leaning toward the Chrome because of their reputation for making bomb-proof bags but for a price. Can anyone give me insight to the Crank Brothers bag? If not I'm just gonna get weird and get the Chrome bag.

The crank bros. bag has a smaller size then the chrome. Crank=27cl Chrome=40cl. I would always like to have a larger bag then needed. I personaly would not purchase a bag that I could not read reviews for or find locally so I could physically inspect it. Not many pics on the net, or info on crank bros page about the bag.

I own a chrome, so take my opinion for what it is worth. You can get a metropolis cheaper on chrome's backdoor sale page, on ebay or from craiglist.
