Cole has one of these and he let me use it on our mini-tour, and it would've been a pain in the ass without it- and actually, ever since we got back, it has been a little bit of a pain in the ass without one!
Velcro straps attach it securely to your top tube and headset- right up front and easy to get to while riding. It also has a mesh lid that secures your goods with a velcro closure. So not completely waterproof, but that's o.k.- I love it for it's convenience- besides, how often does it rain? Not too much here...
This thing was big enough to hold my crackberry, smokes, lighter, ipod, and more! I know- smoking is a filthy habit- blame Cole- he taught me how...he even bummed my first smoke for me...what a guy!!! I love him. But this review isn't about my bad habits- it's about this rad little pack...
So needless to say, PD's E Pack is high on my current want/wish list. I just saw one super cheap on price point... hmm...what to do!?! just sayin'...
Try one out and I bet you'll be glad I put you up to the challenge, and if I'm wrong, feel free to write to me & whine about it- i might even have something to trade you for it, but I'm pretty sure you'll be very content with your purchase on this one!
