Medium Wedge Pack Fits Me

This Medium Topeak Pack fits perfectly, I had a Topeak Micro Pack and it was too small. This medium size is big enough to fit a spare tube, multi-tool, CO2 cartridge and blower, patch kit with glue, pry bar, 6 bandages, handy wipes, some wire and some plastic zip ties with limited space. This might seem like a lot to some, but if I get stuck I have most things that could be taken care of by a roadside repair. Better a lot than not enough for the average driver who drives 40-60 miles a weekโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Best in Niche
Cons
  • Weight

This is a very long-term review of this product. I've had it for over ten years. Pros: Plenty of space, easy to attach to the bike. Cons: Zippers suck. They didn't break, but if you get there with road gravel they get stuck and stuck and are generally difficult to dislodge. Lightning sucks. Combined with the above, I've given up accessing this bag while it's clipped under my seat. The zipper is uncomfortably hampered by the bottom of the seat as it slides over the top of the bag. Every time Iโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Almost OK

Nothing for bike snobs, but good for those who don't pose.

My old but still nice Specialized Tarmac SL2 is a complete race bike, but my favorite use of it is on brisk 80-mile rides on the network of old two-track hundreds of miles that connect East San Bay, Francisco. There are practically no cars on these roads - they all drive on nearby highways, get into a rage, but drive slower than me. I hate being overweight, but I know the risks of just wearing an inner tube. So I carry two. When the weather is unpredictable, my raincoat fits perfectly. Likeโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Hands-free handling
Cons
  • Very expensive

Great backpack, it fits everything you need.

Great set. My favorite feature is the seatpost strap. It's stretchy and can also be rotated (it's not sewn directly to the backpack, but goes through a loop on the front of the backpack). This allows you to keep the extra strap off your legs. You'll appreciate it if you've ever ruined a good pair of shorts by rubbing one of those straps. Room. Like many others, I have the following minimalist items, both on the road and in the mountains: multi-tool, patch kit, 700c hoses, 2 levers, 2 CO2โ€ฆ

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other picks

Very nice bag, although not waterproof

NOTE. This refers to the size *medium*. The bag is *not* open in the photo. This is a good road bike bag if your seat is raised 4"+ from the lowest position (more if you want to fit a taillight underneath). I've had no problem with my hips rubbing the bag. The bag seems pretty sturdy too and has a Reflective stripe on the back.It attaches to the seat post with Velcro (I cut mine so it doesn't protrude) and attaches to the saddle with buckles.It has elastic straps on the inside of the upper part

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Very well made but don't like the seatpost strap

About a year ago I bought 2 larger versions of this bag and gave them 5 stars in my review. I still use one regularly and gave the other one to my daughter when she started cycling. I bought 2 of these medium sized bags and they are the same great construction bags with one small but important exception - the seatpost strap. When my 2 medium bags arrived today I put one on my Giant Defy Advanced Pro bike and the straps worked perfectly to attach it to the seat rails. However, when I wrapped the

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and bulky

Possibly the highest quality saddle wedge you can find.

I find a good saddlebag essential when riding your bike in all weather conditions, be it on-road, off-road or mountain biking. Everyone should carry an extra tube, some patches, a multi-tool, and a few other items that depend on personal preference. Without a small backpack, you could take a long walk home or a long drive back to your car. I prefer to keep my essentials in a small wedge backpack and Topeak makes some of the nicest bags on the market. The bag is made of beautiful, durable 1200โ€ฆ

Pros
  • Superb Construction
Cons
  • Crumpled Packaging

Size comparison medium to large

I've been using the medium aero wedge for a few months now but when I wanted to carry more gear I found it wasn't big enough so I decided to give it a big try . I needed a bag long enough to hold both a folding lock and a mini pump, as well as a few small tools and snacks. In fact, everything but the pump could be put in the bag if I were creative and grabbed the zipper diagonally without unzipping it. The big one could fit everything, and with the zip open you could even add a 29" tubeโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Doubtful
