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

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice simple bag, but no. very aerodynamic

I bought this for the handlebars to carry my phone and small bike tools. I didn't like it on the steering wheel because it looks clunky and has a bit of sagging. So I pulled it to the handlebars of the bike. It works well in this location because it doesn't move or affect my vision or driving. I can concentrate on the bike and the trail and don't have to worry about the bag. It fits my large phone and a few small bike tools. The zippers are stiff and bothersome, but I suspect they make them waterproof. I'm getting used to the closures. I wish the zipper opening was bigger but it works well enough. Since the bag is not expensive, it's hard to complain about small details when the overall bag works well. Pocket. These two flashes open the same space. I never use a circular zipper because it's even more annoying than a top zipper. There's also a zipper that opens up a small flat pocket to keep your credit card, key or cash - something very small and flat. I don't use this one either. What I like most about this bag is the velcro mountain straps as it is very easy to detach and reattach the bag. This is important to me because I take my bag off every time I'm done riding. Now that I use this bag all the time, I know what features I need in the perfect bag. But even if I ever buy another bag that fits my bike frame perfectly, I will keep this little bag and use it on another bike. a bit annoying. The zipper cannot be opened very far. The bag is a little bulky wherever I put it. The shape isn't perfect and I wish I had gone for one of the triangle framed bags.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and bulky
