Saddle bags - what are you using?

[gngroup]

I’m looking for a new saddle bag. I’ve been using a VeloColour roll bag but with my new saddle it seems to wiggle itself loose. I should clarify that this is for use on my ‘gravel’ rides. I’m just curious what other people are using?

These are really nice and almost always in stock at box dog if you wanted to see it in person

I’ve got a couple of these in the medium size.

Reasonably durable, accessible, and has enough space for a couple tubes, inflator and co2 cartridges.

I have a velocolour and had it wiggle out a few times too. I almost gave up on it, until I reread the instructions and figured out that I had to reshape the tube so it was longer vs packed tight and also oriented the bag correctly. Once I did this I have had no issues, maybe try reorganizing your pack and tightening the strap to the next notch?

I picked up one of these about a year ago: Detours The Wedgie Bag

About $20...recommended on another saddle bag thread around that time.

Pretty nice...keeps it shape, no velcro around seatpost is nice, pretty secure and a good price.

Only grip is that there is no loop on back to attach a tailight...

i've tried a bunch and always go back to jandd minis

If that doesn't work, you can also add a voile ski strap for extra security on gravel. This is what I do on my soulrun tool roll.

I second this....

[bikinchris]

What, there's no Louis Vitton out there?

I tried so many bags over the years but like the Arundel bags and the Castelli XL bag, which has a sleeve for my mini pump.

I've been very happy with an Arundel Dual. Just big enough for ordinary road riding, easy to switch between bikes, stays out of the way, and the velcro still works after a couple years. I've sworn off a number of bags due to poor velcro and/or crappy straps: Lezyne, Fizik and PRO were notable failures.

curious what you like better about this than the Silca's your selling in classifieds? I like the Silca for road riding but definitely on the small side for gravel/other.

Did anyone mention VeloColour?
