Comments about Novara Medium Seat Bag:

This bag is just too small. The saddle strap just bearly fit through the seat rails and crimps the bag so my Cell would not fit in. Looks ok, but overall just a waste of time and effort.

Comments about Novara Medium Seat Bag:

I suppose the quality of the actual bag is acceptable and sufficiently durable. My problem, however, is that it does not fit on my bike. The velcro strap does not fit around my seat post, so I cannot use this bag at all. Not pleased.

Comments about Novara Medium Seat Bag:

Since I finally got my wife onto a bike of her own, I'd had need of a compact way to carry a few essentials with me on our rides around the neighborhood. My Timbuk2 Tandem Panniers are great for my commute, but their bulk is unnecessary for the job. I had wanted the larger expanding seat bag, because, hey, more room. However, It proved too large when I picked it up and took it over to a Novara Fusion identical to my own. The expanding bag, even with the seat adapter removed, would not comfortably fit between the seat and the front bar of the rear rack. I then tried this medium bag, comparing it to the medium Timbuk2 Strap Seat Pack. I preferred the look of the Timbuk2, but it lacked an attachment point for the extra rear light I like to use when it gets dark, and it had no internal structure for organizing its contents. Therefore, the Novara won the day. I've used it on a few rides now, and like the way my tools and patchkit stay in the left and right internal mesh pockets, while my smartphone and keys fit tidily in the center area. I think I might even be able to squeeze in a spare tube.
