Never a sticky back again, everything dry over, great buy!
A handlebar bag, or a saddle bag after all? using Mantel's decision aid, I ended up with the Topeak Backloader, the 6l seems big enough to replace my rucksack for sandwiches, fruit and other commuting equipment. The first ride was top, the 2nd wet and then it turns out it doesn't act as a mudguard, so I snapped my plate under it and the 3rd ride was top and wet.
- Good to pull tight with the straps
- Waterproof interior that can be taken inside
- Light is a bit difficult to fit
- Some tinkering to put a mudguard under it

Fine sturdy backloader with plenty of space
Fine backloader where you can put enough in for a multi-day cycling trip, provided you don't go camping. It is easy to assemble and of good quality. I did notice that the bag tended to hang down. However, this is easy on the loose by securing the straps along the top and crosswise instead of along the sides. For a multi-day trip through the Eiffel, it held up well.
- Attaches securely
- Fits a lot
- Good build quality
- Can overhang and hit the wheel

Fine in use
Super nice bag! I cycled to Paris with it last week, and everything I needed fit in it. The bag attaches well to the bike and you have as much balance as normal. The bag stays up well and even a pair of sneakers and sandals one could be attached on top.
- Easy to attach
- Fits a lot
- Sturdy
