Does your bagaboo swallow you?
I know, I know...we're all sick and tired of bag posts but this question hasn't been brought up in another post yet so don't jump on me too quick. I was looking at the bagaboo site trying to decide which size I wanted so I began to compare them to pac(my other choice) and chrome(the bag I have now) bags...unless I did the math wrong these things are huge...the large size is still over 3,000 cubic inches and the x-large is obviously bigger than that. I noticed that it seems like these bags are deeper than most...does that mean a three thousand cubic inch bag won't swallow me(6 foot and a skinny 155lbs) or should I bump down to the medium?

take the large! i'm 5'10" 145lbs and the large is a good size. sometimes i think the xl wouldn't have been too big either.

That might have been me. I have had an XL bagaboo for about 4 months. They are pretty sweet bags and the custom thing is cool. Also Tomas is really helpful through the whole process.
I am 6'4" and 175 pounds so pretty skinny and I don't find it's too big. If it's empty then I have the strap almost as short as it goes and it can feel a bit sloppy - but how often is your bag empty? I got the bottom compression straps which are great on a big bag, just tighten them up and you're good to go.
Would have been sweet to get a secret pocket put in somewhere.
