Sturdy, highly compatible, exactly as advertised

4 years ago

Bought this a few weeks ago and have taken it only plenty rides (and certainly many more to come) and it has works perfectly. It was a bit hard to insert the washers where they wanted (make sure to take a quick glance at the instructions), but after that the installation was super easy. This bag has enough space for my phone, keys, a granola bar, some energy chews, and a little bit of extra space for a few more small items. NOTE: This will work with any bike that has bolts on the top tube. I love the fact that I do not need to add a strap for this to stay on and it makes my Topstone Carbon 5 have an overall cleaner look.

lots of space and will fit almost any bike

4 years ago

from the description I wasn't entirely sure if this bag would mount directly onto my bike (2021 kona sutra ULTD) but I'm happy to report that it fit perfectly. It looks like this bag will comfortably fit any bike with top-tube bolts that are between 50 and 80mm apart. I also wasn't sure how to guage the carrying volume of the bag based off of the measurements so I'll just say that I've been able to fit a 26800 mah power bank, my iphone 12 pro max, my wallet, and a couple clif bars in the bag at once. There is definitely more than enough space

Toxic Lead Warning

1 year ago

I wanted to love this bag. Everything about it is perfect. Size, rigidity, waterproof, bolt on. As I waited in line to buy it, I read the back of the tag which says something to the effect of, “Warning! This product contains lead. Wash your hands after handling this.” Are you kidding me? Why is Salsa manufacturing this using lead? No thank you.

Perfect addition to your Salsa

4 years ago

Got this for my Salsa Cutthroat. It's easy to install and it's secure. It holds an entire day's worth of snacks, wallet, keys, etc.

Good quality, maybe too wide

2 years ago

Good quality, and mounts well. I do bump it with both my knees when I stand to go up a hill, which I have gotten kind of used to but isn't ideal.

SALSA Direct-Mount Top Tube Bag

4 years ago

Awesome top tube bag with a very sturdy zipper, enough space for phone or what not. It's just enough extra space for those quick items like power or hydrate.

Hard to review an item you never received

4 months ago

I never received the item as my order (ending in 4965) was cancelled by REI. Reason given was not available, although the order processed and I was given an estimated delivery date. Three days later I was notified of the cancellation. This is why automated computer generated emails are not real customer service.
