Now there's a thought...make something fun and colorful instead of basic black and boring!

Pink fur caught my eye, but I don't know. From Banana Bag to little bag?

In case anyone is interested I just emailed them about the size (since it's not quantified on the website). The bags are 40 cubic inches. Alas, I like my large Timbuk2 bag that's nearly twice that size... I have a smaller Timbuk2 bag that's about the size of these, and it REALLY only fits a tube and CO2 pump, plus 2 tire irons if you really cram things in. For afternoon-long weekend rides I want space for a few other things -- and it's too much of a pain to have to switch back and forth between a "short ride" bag and a "long ride" bag...
Have to give props to Sam Krieg though, for responding to my email in about 10 minutes, along with the helpful suggestion that I could just put the tube up under my saddle rails and use the bag for everything else
.
I had to run and try this -- and I'm sure it works for some saddles but my Fizik Ariones just don't have the vertical or horizontal space to do it... S'pose I could tie it on somehow but that'd be a pain every time I opened the seatbag.
Guess I'll have to wait til they come out with a bigger bag (hint hint).Last edited by VeloVT; 05-04-2007 at 09:23 AM.

I did try stuffing the spare tube under the seat so that I could fit everything else in my seat bag. Looks like it works fine, except when I stopped for lunch there was no longer a spare tube to be found....must have fallen out at some point when the road got a bit bumpy.

I've been hanging around jobob too long. I used to use this cute blue aloha print seat bag. Held a tube, patch kit and tool. Now Bleu's sportin' the Banana Bag and I'm wondering if it's big enough.....
