Review on 🚲 ROCKBROS Bike Handlebar Bag: Waterproof Storage Solution for Road and Mountain Biking by Isaiah Boys

Revainrating 2 out of 5

I don't like this bag

The bag is too bulky for its small size and awkward to use, I can't get it to work on my drop bar bike and it's just sitting on the shelf for now. .One thing you might not notice right away is that the 2 straps to hang the bag on the handlebar are off center, the bag sticks out further on one side (the end with a zip). Check out the product photos. I can't ride with my hands on the handlebars on this side because the bag is sticking out. Some, in turn, find it difficult to hold on to the steering wheel. Even with the brake and gear cables on my bike, it is not possible to open the zip pockets with the bag on the bike. Next, I tried the pocket on the top tube. The problem is that the two end caps of the bag are hard (they are sewn with a plastic disc or something inside) so the bag is shaped like a cylinder and my feet scratch it when pedaling. Finally I will comment. on flash. They are difficult to open. This is definitely a plus for the waterproofness and security of your belongings that won't slip out while driving, but it's difficult to unzip a diagonal zipper with one hand. The zipper at the end is difficult to open even with two hands! The small slip pocket is also very small (suitable for some credit cards or maybe an iPhone 5) leaving the main pocket which is just a large tubular shape with no pockets, key clip or anything like that. And the butt zipper is really the only way to access the entire space. Long story short, I really tried, but it didn't really work. It'll probably fit a flat bike with a wider riding position, but that doesn't make it a "good" bag. Shape and usability are mediocre at best. It looks like a fake, not tested by cyclists at all.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • No automatic
