Review on πŸŽ’ Topeak MTX Trunk Bag EX: Sleek and Spacious Black One Size Solution by Stephen Thomas

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Goes well with the Topeak Super Tourist tubular bike carrier DX

Great pannier bag! I've paired it with a Topeak Super Tourist Tubular Bicycle Rack DX for ripping discs and it works great! I have a pair of Ortliebs and didn't want to mess with a tight fit - it always hurts so this is perfect for me. For a lighter day at work or a short day trip, I just use this trunk bag. The only thing is that it might rattle a little. When I have Ortlieb baskets on either side it doesn't rattle, but without them I usually stuff something between the bag and the counter to stop the rattling. I love that it has sturdy sides, the elastic drawstring at the top is perfect for quick storage of a light jacket, the center divider is handy for organization, the water bottle holder is great for an extra drink if I need one, and The side pockets are nice to put extra papers/receipts/small tools. I don't really use the included shoulder strap, but it's there if you need to buckle it up (although it looks a little flimsy). There's a small rear loop for attaching a taillight, which is great. I like to have two rear lights for safety reasons, so one on the bike and one on the bag. I would have given 5 stars if I hadn't rumbled on the track.

Pros
  • Bicycle bag accessories
Cons
  • Almost everything is ok
