Comments about Topeak Aero Wedge DX Seat Bag - Medium:
I keep a bicycle at my place of work in case I have to get home (37 driving miles away) by means other than my car (EMP, MCE, tornado destroying car routes home, etc) and wanted a small bag to store a tube and some bike specific tools for simple repairs. This bag does the job.

Comments about Topeak Aero Wedge DX Seat Bag - Medium:
I use this Topeak Bag for my Road Bike and on my City Commuter bike. I have multiple Topeak bags of varying size so I really appreciate the consistent clip system. My Road bike also has a seat post that has an aero design so having an adjustable velcro strap is perfect. This was also my go to bag during my ride for the AIDs LifeCycle and it held way more than what you think it could.
It managed to carry the following:
- Cash & Credit Cards
- Keys
- iPhone
- Spare Tube
- Tire lever
- Small cleaning rag
- Travel SPF
- Chapstick
- Individual use Chamois Butt'r (don't judge!)
- Rear Bike Light (Secured to the rear loop)
In the three years that I have owned it, it still is in excellent condition and is one of my favorite saddle bags.

Comments about Topeak Aero Wedge DX Seat Bag - Medium:
I mainly ride on pavement with some tame mountain biking. The pack has plenty of room for my levers, a spare tube and multi tool. That said, I owned the pack a year before the quick release clip broke. Mind you it broke while mounted to my bike while on the rack in the garage, not bouncing down a trail. The quick release clip is the weak link of this pack. And the company does not provide satisfactory customer service to replace their defective part. I may consider returning to REI since the company will not stand by their product. If you do buy a Topeak pack, I would suggest getting one with straps to attach to the saddle, not the plastic clip.
Service and delivery comments:
I contacted Customer Service about the broken clip and their response was to pay $2.95 to buy one from them and $2.95 to have it shipped. Lousy service for a part that broke while sitting still. I consider it cheap manufacturing. Had they sent me a part I would have considered it a one time malfuncion. If they don't stand by their product, I wouldn't buy it.

This pack works well on the road or when there's no bumps. However, do not get this pack if you are a mountain biker. The design of the tool pocket zipper causes it to open when you hit repeated bumps as when mountain biking. I've lost 2 tools to this already. The first time I thought maybe I forgot to zip it up and the tool slid out. After the second time, I figured out that the vibration of the bumps combined with the weight of the tool in the tool pockect plus what ever's in the main pocket, causes the zipper to slide open. the main pocket is not an issue, but the tool pocket will open on it's own if you mountain bike. Had no problems on the road or flat surfaces so this would be an ideal pack for road/causual bikers.

No problems with the back per se, it works just fine and there is plenty of room. I have a brooks saddle though and the two do not get along. I had to rig something, but had I known this mismatch I would have gone with something different. However, five stars because that has nothing to do with the quality of the bag, just know that it won't fit your brooks saddle.

This is a pretty sweet little saddle pack. It has enough room to put keys, wallet, and cell phone while you are heading to work or school, or if you are going mountain biking there is enough room for a spare tube, c02 pump, plus keys. There is a small compartment on top to put keys in to keep them separate too which is nice. Its super easy to take off you bike too.

Looks can be deceiving, as this saddle bag is not very big. However, I'm able to carry a spare tube, patch kit, tire levers, two CO2 canisters and dispenser, three gel packs, mobile phone and a pocket tool. Of course this is packed, but it all fits comfortably!
