  Just for the record: The width, 8.5 inches is not 19 cm. Try 21.5 cm

4 Stars A Perfect size
by D. Greg Nelson on May 19, 2011
  The bag delivers fully on all of its promises: Its well designed, sturdy, and has a wonderful mounting system. Its a great product and a "Must consider" before buying the MUCH larger size which is just too bulky for many riders. This size fits a my touring (Self contained camping) needs perfectly. Should I be critical?... OK the "shoulder strap" does not fold into the bag nicely for storage at all and if I am expected to "unclip" it everytime a more sturdy and functional clip should be privided. They have a video on you-tube demontrating the storage process, but it doesnt allow full access to the bag zippers especially while reiding. Plus, the fact that it requires a "Video" should tell you something. In a bag this expensive a better design on the "shoulder strap" is imperative for 5 stars. Also a small strap with a clip sewn into the front pocket for "keys" would have been a nice thought

5 Stars Rock solid
by Greg Graham on Oct 6, 2010
  This was our second Arkel handlebar bag. I've had mine for three years and have been very happy with it. The mounting system is rock solid, I've never had to tighten or readjust it. The smaller size keeps me from overloading yet is enough for what I really like to keep there. I like the side mesh pockets and although not waterproof it does a good job in moderate rain even without the cover. The removable liner is something you think you might never need however last winter a mouse got in to my bag and opened a GU and made quite a mess. It was handy to be able to remove the liner to wash it. All in all a great bag.
