Review on Waterproof Strap-On Saddle Bag for Bicycle: TecTri Bike Seat Pack with LED Taillight & Mesh Pocket by Marlin Atonyo

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Potentially dangerous product! See the following review.

Nice saddlebag. Construction is good, capacity is excellent, access is very good. A tail light was a real plus. Very bright solid or flashing light that attaches securely to your pocket and runs on 2 AAA batteries. I was able to load a 700X40 tube, 3-16g CO2 cartridges, 3 tire levers and an inflation tool leaving plenty of room. Can easily add my wallet or combo tool or phone depending on size. It closes with 2 zippers and the flap falls down when opened, providing good access to the bag's contents. Can't comment on the weather resistance at the moment, but it seems like it should be moisture resistant. All in all a great purchase. ********** Originally I gave this product a very good rating, as you can see above. More recently the product has failed, particularly the velcro straps have failed in cycling. The straps came undone and the bag fell onto the rear wheel. Luckily for me, I found out about this shortly afterwards and was able to put the bag back on, only to detach it after a few miles of riding. I now realize that the velcro product used is worse. The potential risk associated with this malfunction could be a bag catching on the rear wheel, which could result in a serious accident or personal injury. The taillight was also on the rear tire, causing excessive tire wear and minor damage. So please beware of this potential setback and weigh it in your purchasing decision. Take care.
