Fitting everything in your bag??

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

What size (S, M, L,?) is that? And how durable is the clip-on seat post attachment?

its a leftover cosmo bag made by chrome, and at 3300 cubic inches plus overflow(lid open) it still isnt big enough, im convinced at this point in order to get one that is big enough I will have to special order one

when cosmo went out of business chrome sold the remaining bags off at like 40% normal price, they had some with logos, and some w/o, this one is w/o the logo

Carry a credit card then. If you can't be bothered to get the bigger seat, be ready to pay when your bike breaks down.
