Echo Trail Seatbag
I ordered the Echo Trail Seatbag From Frost river. The bag was different from the picture. While I loved the artist's sketch, the bag I received did not have the rivet and leather detail at the top and the bindings were dark brown and did not match the leather as the pic indicates. The bag was a dark olive as opposed to the pretty carmel pictured. Call me crazy, but on a teacher's salary, when I spend this much on a bike bag, I'm going to be particular on looks too. I emailed Frost River, but no response. I'd say it was my problem, but I keep looking at that picture and that's NOT what they sent! I'm thinking maybe the whole Rivendell/Frost River thing caused them to slightly alter the bag, but shouldn't the picture of the product reflect that? Maybe I'm too picky????
I called Rivendell and the tan Nigel Smythe seat pouches are currently out of stock. (that green and blue tweed just doesn't do it for me). I've scoured the internet for an alternate. I really like the looks of the Baggins Banana, but no one is even selling them on ebay. I may just have to wait 4-6 weeks to get what I want. Patience, Patience...
Anyone else have any ideas on an alternate? Thanks.
