    Brooks Challenge bag

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    I think the Challenge bag is so lovely...and because my seat is kinda low, a small bag wouldn't rest on my rack...but how much can a gal carry in one?

    I carry: keys/cell/multi-tool/gloves and of course a snack. Um...some grease, a small notebook and pencil. Camera...

    I think I just outgrew it...

    I'll stick with my Carradice round pack --ebay--

    I checked the auction. Soutine won the bag I bid on. If that's your bag, how do you like it? I'm still considering getting it from Wallbike.

    that would be me...sorry!

    it's nice...really roomy. I think the waxed canvas ones from Duluth Pack are better looking, but I like the shape because my seat is low and whatever I hang on my saddle pretty much rests on the rack...

    Ah, the beauty of ebay. I have the green Carradice Barley and I was wondering if you think this rolled bag would fit on the handlebars? The pic makes it seem fairly small, but then I measured it and it's really not, is it?

    the bag itself seems fine for the handlebars...but the leather straps might need to be replaced...they're short.
