chrome mini metro
 
Hey i would like to know if a Chrome Mini Metro would be a good bag for school. I am a high school student and about to be a junior. I would like to know how much stuff i can fit. I usually carry a binder and a couple of notebooks. I wanna know what you guys think of this bag. I sometimes ride my bike to school also or around just for fun

That is a pretty small bag. Have you considered this one, which is on sale right now - Citizen Messenger Bag - Fits laptops up to 17" - 13"h x 22"w x 7"d | Chrome Industries

I had a Mini Metro and it held a pile of stuff. Can’t speak for school but the size was fine for a pair of #12 shoes and everything I needed at the gym. For the last couple years I’ve used a Timbuktu Classic every day. The same size and has a top handle as well as shoulder strap. They’re both fine bags on the bike. The Timbuktu is a little nicer when you’re not. While the Chrome buckle is cool, it’s not cool when it whacks a car door or a nice tabletop. For size, lay out a pile of what you want to carry, measure it and look at the bag dimensions. I'd guess the mini would be fine.
