Review on Explore Convenient Storage with Schwinn Bicycle Bag and Mounted Accessories by Chris Kidd

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice, but there is one major downside.

After the zipper on my last handlebar bag stopped working (almost immediately), I went in search of a replacement. I wanted it to be big enough to hold the cable for my bike lock but not too big. Obviously a good zip, a solid handlebar attachment mechanism and a way to hold the bag if I wanted to take it with me. And of course I wanted a sturdy yet discreet bag. This bag fulfills most of those purposes. The following areas could be improved: It would be nice if there were clips for attaching the shoulder strap. The bag is big enough to double as a "purse" when you're not on the bike, but you only have a short strap at the top. It's not a big problem as I can fit other straps if I want. A more important downside is the velcro straps to attach the bag to the bike. It's just WAY TOO SHORT. Even with a bag next to the handlebars I can barely wrap the straps around the handlebars and they quite overlap. The straps appear to be sized for a very thin handlebar. The bag didn't fall, but it bothers me. I don't know why they couldn't make these straps at least an inch longer.
