I had a look at the vid and it looked like a decent bag but not worth the full price in a million years.
Let us know what its like.

No never the full amount on anything really.

Seems decent enough, better than my khaki canvas bag for keeping gear dry if anything else.

Just bagged one myself.
Mine appeared to day. Would have liked a bit more back protection from the bags contents.

Bag's ok. Like folk have realised, all the protection is on the outside rather than the inside and contents can dig into your back. For me the hard lower edge digs into my back when I tried it on but I suspect when it's on over my bike jacket and back protector it'll be just fine on both fronts.

Still, it kinda makes me feel like a tactical ninja turtle :lol:

The thing that impressed the most was that you could send delivery instructions to the courier on where to leave the box and they did that which they were told. I would use XL Moto again purely for that reason.

Well that was exactly what DIDN'T happen for me.

Delivery instruction was to leave with neighbour next door if I wasn't in (neighbour was in all day). Got home to find a "We missed you" note with the "Item needs signing for" box ticked. The other box was "There was no answer at your neighbour" was virgin white and untouched :lol:

What with delivery of biking accessories, bike insurance and biking holiday interactions with both machines and participants you ain't having a lot go your way mate. I would think twice before putting that bike in the man cave if I were you.

Has anyone else suddenly started receiving XL Moto promo mail? Think they may have used these bags as a loss leader to create a publicity database.
