Review on ๐Ÿšด XLAB Stealth Frame Bag: Boost your Aerodynamics with the Stealth Pocket 100 by Ivan Brown

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Small but effective

I usually avoid buying products that have almost no reviews, but the sizes described fit my needs, so I took a chance. I needed an unobtrusive bag for a 2.5 ounce bottle of juice and a few packets of mustard for muscle cramps while driving. With the bottle inside, I can easily add 10 to 13 bags of mustard without forcing the bag shut. The bag is small, the cell phone doesn't fit in it, but the keys, cash and maybe an ID and a credit card fit in it. I installed Pedro tire levers but have not tried the stock tube. I will try and then update this review. Time will tell how long this bag lasts, but for now it's good that it feels heavy. ******* UPDATE 10/16/19 ******** I rode her for a few days and had some interesting notes. The hose doesn't fit, but it's not scary. Put it in your jersey pocket. One thing I've noticed but can't pinpoint the exact cause is that the pouch is gradually moving away from the side of the top tube. My top tube isn't round, but it's not flat either. I thought it might be the brake cable slowly wrapping around the band when braking, but the cable isn't making contact with the belts. I will find out one day but for now I will only use this bag at cycling events.
