Bushwhacker® Mesa Trunk Bag Black Review

Looks well made, good zips, reflective strips, well lined and so easy to use. I use it on the luggage rack of my tadpole recumbent bike. Since I mainly use it as a camera bag, I love that it comes with an easy-to-detach shoulder strap. My only concern is that to secure the bag I have to undo the four velcro straps at the top between the main pocket and the outer side pockets and tuck them back in when closing which can be a little awkward. at first, but easy to master with practice.

My backpack arrived on time and well packaged. After unpacking, my review of the bag shows that it's durable, has plenty of storage pockets, and also has a strap on the back for you to attach a taillight or two. However, it's difficult to attach to the stand, but once attached, it's quite stable and durable. As it is difficult to attach, it is also difficult to remove from the stand. The main pocket is large enough to carry a large kryptonite lock or two and two side pockets for accessories…

The bag is very comfortable. It's durable and has zippered side pockets, a top phone or card pocket, and an insulated zippered compartment that holds approximately a 1/2 gallon of milk. This size fits most things I've ever had to wear. It comes with a detachable shoulder strap which I haven't used yet. I just leave this on my bike when I go (and take valuables with me). It has STRONG velcro straps that wrap around my bike rack and then pull back onto the bag. It will be some time before anyone…

Okay I just got this Mesa Bushwacker bag but before I go I have to admit I almost sent this product back without even looking at it. Just because of the bad reviews. Now that it's out of the box I have a lot to say about it. First of all this bag is well built, it looks like I don't take it out of my tote very often. It's well insulated, lots of space for things. It doesn't look like it's sagging much, the sidewalls are soft but thick enough to shape it. I wouldn't carry buckets of paint in…

The bag is very roomy and looks well constructed with very hard sides. Like side pockets and top pocket. Put the tire pump and tools in one side pocket and some first aid items in the other side pocket, put the bike manual in the top pocket. 4 Velcro straps fix it securely. Large main compartment. Much better than the bag I had. Tie the straps on and where they go is confusing if you don't know how they are attached. I found out about this after reading another review ie. H. The straps go…

Very good pannier bag. Mounting the rack to the trunk: My rear rack isn't as wide as some and I was a little worried it would warp when strapped on, but the bag held its shape due to the thick foam used in the construction . I just wish it had a front attachment point to keep the bag from sliding front to back. I solved this problem by sliding the front straps forward over the corners of the counter and then backwards and at a slight angle under the side pockets. I really like the size of this…

I ordered this bag for myself, I've been using it for about a month. In general I am satisfied. Quality material and construction. The main compartment is insulated and keeps drinks cold for hours at 80 degrees. The only complaint I have is that it sometimes tilts to one side when on my Bontrager luggage, even when strapped. I ordered a second one and it's different. The material seems to be more robust, the logo on the back is bigger, the zippers are different. This new one has a label in the…

Let me start by saying that I can't find the country of origin on the bag or anywhere else in the box it came in. Well made, attaches securely to the Bontraeger seatpost with velcro strips and looks great once installed. I love that it has a shoulder strap for carrying, although I'll probably rarely take it off as it's a small project of attaching and attaching Velcro strips. The side pockets are good for a few tools, whistles and gloves etc whilst the main compartment is perfect for a 1 liter…

I'm a police officer and I've recently started bike lanes downtown. I bought this bag on the recommendation of another longtime rider. I have to say I'm not disappointed. This is a well-designed pannier that fully meets my needs. It keeps its shape and holds the few pieces of gear I don't already have on my belt. I attached a flashlight to the back of this bag which attaches well. The trick I was shown by the officer who recommended the bag is to take a rubber band and wrap it around the…
