According to the product specialist

Pros
The compression straps on the side allow you to minimise the size of the BackLoader.
With the air release button you can easily let excess air out of the bag.
In the waterproof inner bag (dry bag) the contents of the BackLoader remain absolutely dry.
The water-repellent polyester and the waterproof seams offer good protection against rainwater.
With the compression straps you can reduce the size of the rear bag.
For further enhanced visibility the AGU Venture Seat Pack has a mounting option for a rear light.
As this product is made of 100% recycled polyester it comes under AGU's Greensphere label.
The AGU Frame Pack is made of recycled water-repellent polyester.
The large opening makes it easy to transport long items.
As the frame bag is available in 2 different sizes, you can select the one which is most suitable for your cycling plans.
As this product is made of 100% recycled polyester it has AGU's Greensphere label.
Great for heavier gear.
Cons
After long and frequent use Velcro loses its effectiveness.
This bag needs at least 12 centimetres of mounting space on the seatpost.
As this rear bag is attached with straps, it cannot be detached and fastened with a simple hand movement.
This bag has a capacity of 10 litres. Due to a printing error, 20 litres is incorrectly stated on some packages.
With a small frame size, the Frame pack may not fit. So always measure the space in your frame first!
If your bike has a small frame size, you may not be able to take your water bottles out of their cages easily due to the bag being in the way.
