I've been looking for a good-sized handlebar bag that opens away from the rider and has its own mounting system. I found this online, a German product, looks good. Anyone used or even seen one? What about this Klickfix mounting system?
Thanks

I'm not familar with that bag but have used the Klickfit mounting systems and recommend them. They are rugged and reliable.

I have the Klickfix on a Berthoud handlebar bag that I use with my CSI. It works very well and I love the bag. My bag is smaller than the one you pictured, though--it's about 10" x 7" x 7". You have to be careful about carrying too heavy a load affixed to just your handlebars since it can yank your steering around.

Thanks OP
Good post been trying to find a US dealer for a while as looked at the meta one backpack for seatpost as no where else to carry on bike! Person I know said they had to have a friend pickup in Germany to get one!
heard great things about the quality and mounting system! Let us know what u find out!

Can't comment on the bag but I love the KlickFix system on my panniers. Makes it super easy to get the bags off and on the bike. No bungee cord to muck about with. Just hook on, snap and you're ready to roll.

As a disclaimer, I haven't had much experience with other systems but after much research I chose my panniers because of the KlickFix system. After 3+ years of commuting with my bags, I still love 'em.
