Saddle bag

artaxerxes

Hi
I was thinking of getting one of these Topeak saddle bags in the small size, as one of the reviewers mentioned that it was big enough for cycling gear plus phone. Do any of you have one and can you actually get a multi-tool, spare inner tube, tyre levers, wallet and phone into them?
I'd appreciate any alternatives too, as long as they don't get in the way as you cycle.

Thanks

I've got one of these. Can't remember what size though sorry.

Currently have a spare tube, some rubber bits, small puncture repair tub, tyre levels and a few loose allen keys inside.

Not sure you'd get the wallet and phone in, unless real small. Wouldn't dare leave my iphone in there mind, rattles around constantly.

In size small I have:

3x pedros tyre levers
1x tube
3x crank brother multitool
1x spoke key
cable ties


Still more space, could probably fit a phone (but putting a phone in your saddle bag is foolish anyway), but theres no way a wallet would fit.

I have the small version and really like it. Multi-tool, spare tube, levers, keys and a few small bits and pieces. No room for phone or wallet, I keep them zipped in my pocket anyway. Mrs. Boat has the next size up from the small, she can fit a phone and prob a smallish wallet.

I've got a small Ortlieb Mud Racer, which holds:

2 tyre levers
Inner tube
Multitool
Puncture repair kit
CO2 inflator
Montane Featherlite Jacket

If it didn't have the jacket, it could probably take a wallet and phone (they go in jersey pockets).

Thanks, I'll have a look at this Ortlieb Mud Racer. It looks like what I am looking for.
