Sports Direct cr*p seat bag

Just incase anyone is in Sports Direct and sees a 'bargain' seat bag for £10 and thinks of buying it, DON'T!! I bought one because it was cheap and I don't have much money because I'm only 16, and it looked perfect. But out cycling yesterday on it's second outing and it broke catastrophically, bottom seam tore and everything fell out, breaking my phone in the process!! Possibly my fault because it was on my full suspension and it might have hit the wheel on the downhill section where it broke, but it looked like it had plenty of clearance, not sure?
Anyway, just a warning to you all, don't buy it!

So it might have been your fault but it's still a piece of crap?Transition Patrol - viewtopic.php?f=10017&t=130702350

The bike stuff at sports direct is a pile of shite. Sue the bastards!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!0

Not sure if it's my fault, but yeah its definitely theirs haha. I'll get in touch with my lawyers0

A saddle bag on a mtb is a bad idea IMO. A rucksack is much better and there's hardly any risk of it hitting a wheel and breaking unless you do something really wrong.

If your wheel hit it, then in no way is it SD's fault but all yours......my daughters cheap Lidl bag is still doing just fine on her commuter though.....after 4 years.Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0

Take from it what you want, just thought I'd put it out there. Dont know if it did hit the wheel but it's a possibility. And i cant post pictures, phone won't let me and i dont have a working proper camera. Sorry0

The internet didn't exist when I was 16, so any stupidity was kept to a circle of friends.

Slating something for failing when it is possible the real wheel hit it (and he doesn't know) is pretty dumb, check first and slate afterwards!Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0

Ask sports direct to pay for the consequential damages caused by the premature failure of their product0 -

Yes, that's true, teenagers know everything about everything and are the smartest people in the world.
Seriously. This is true. Even old people were teenagers once, but they just became old, boring and stupid.

Well, thats how some teenagers see it.0
