Topeak MidLoader

The Topeak MidLoader (bicycle frame saddlebag) is as described in the description. It can be easily fitted to the bike and is easy and practical to attach. The only drawback is that it is not waterproof, so in case of rain it is advisable to put what goes inside in a waterproof bag or find a cover that fits the saddlebag to add to it on the outside. The 4.5L saddlebag is 46cm long, and is suitable for bikes with a frame no bigger than 49-50cm.

You can easily put stuff in and take stuff out. If you don't pack it properly, your legs will probably hit the bulging sides. After a few long bike rides, some paint came off the frame of my road bike. I also had to buy bottle cages where you could take the bottle out sideways because otherwise the bag would be in the way.

Pros & Cons

One of those bags that makes you happy. It holds plenty, zips open on two sides, sits stably on your frame. Withstood a heavy downpour. Great product

Pros & Cons

Does what it's made for. Doesn't get in the way. Keep water bottles in mind, though

Pros & Cons

Falls very disappointingly. Bag is limp. Zip has already broken off on one side after a year and a half. Have had better stuff from Topeak, but now I'll look elsewhere first.

Pros & Cons

Nice bag, good size, fits a lot.

Pros & Cons

4.5 litres fits perfectly, (frame size 56 I think). Fits a lot and is very handy to put stuff in for long trips that would otherwise all be in your back pocket. Large one-litre water bottles don't fit underneath.

Pros & Cons

I bought this to be able to take some extra with me on slightly longer trips and not have to fill pockets of my shirt. The bag is sturdy and not too wide. Also seems solidly made aimed at inclement weather conditions. If I have to mention a drawback, it is that there is no separate compartment and the inside is not a different colour to make it easier to find things.

Pros & Cons

The bag fits the frame well and is quickly assembled. Plenty of space for the stuff you want to be able to access while travelling. Tools, bars etc. It is also definitely not in the way while cycling. One downside: the zip already slid open once on the "wrong side". Luckily I got the zip right again but I didn't expect this on day 2 already ....

Pros & Cons

Excellent quality. Perfect for cycle touring or events such as the Veneto Gravel
