Find Best Price at Amazon"This review considers approximately two years of regular use of the Ibera PakRak Bicycle Quick-Release Commuter Trunk Bag. There are several zip compartments of varying sizes to assist in sorting one's keys, money, bike parts, etc. While the shoulder strap is nice you'll likely find that the inconvenience of having to attach and remove it from the bag will relegate its use to special situations. Exposure to sun and rain combined with the stress of the weight of your cargo will cause the strap's stitching to deteriorate and break. Ibera support was not available for a warranty claim but Amazon's exceptional customer service picked up the slack (i.e., replaced the bag)."
"I know other reviews have complained about the latching mechanism and experiences with the plastic latching mechanism breaking. (If so, I kinda wish they'd admit that publicly and maybe tag the improved product as version 2)."
"I have tried several approaches for hauling clothes and other stuff, including other post racks, back packs and even a pack that connects directly to seat post."
"I would recommend keeping the shoulder strap attached at all times - when you're riding you can tuck it into the stretch ties up top so it doesn't flop around."
"I love getting to a destination & being able to release the pack with a simple push of a button."
"Water bottle in the top, cash and stop watch in the front, sweat bands, doo rags and misc in the sides and it snaps on and off of the rack in less than a second."
"Amazingly sturdy, had to replace my rear bike rack but the integrated system secures it tightly, the rigid walls and bottom make it very convenient to use as a bike trunk."
"Very nicely made bag.Looks fantastic.Need to make a less bulky version that looks exactly like it.Attatches to the rack like a charm but the rack sits up so high it just looked odd on my bike.Make the rack sit lower profile and the bag a bit smaller and i'd buy it in a heartbeat."

"The inserts which go along the insides are encased in a velcro closure to give this stability and the ability to stand up on its own. This holds the pannier on solid and securely without the need for flimsy bungee type cord attachments. I know that most people feel that Ortlieb's are the best but these are less than half the cost with the additional feature of the outer zipper compartment."
"Great looking bags, feels well-made, has all the features I want."
"I bought these for my performer tadpole trike they work great locking system doesn't work for me on my bike rack."
"The packs themselves have no support on the sides and come with some plastic inserts that are supposed to make the whole thing a bit more rigid."
"The sides are more rigid, so they won't expand as much as others on the market."
"The only issue I have with these is that they are too short for my rear rack and the arm on the bottom clasp doesn't swivel allowing you to connect to a sidebar."
"This is the best bike paniers I could ask for!"

"I tested it out on my bike when I got it, and it holds tight onto the bike with four straps on top, and two clips that go around the spoke guards."
"I was looking for a budget set of medium sized day trekker bags. Lightweight and designed so you shouldn't have any leg kick problems hitting the bag."
"Also, the four (4) straps attach the pannier (saddle bags) to the rear carrier rack {Ventura Universal rack- very bad review coming soon} very easily and come off quickly, to haul into the store. Cheap zippers was a bad idea (insulting) and leave me knowing I would not purchase these bags again. The zippers have come apart with no abusive load or over use. This is not praise worthy.... by any means. ****Update 3/25/2017 The "stops" I had sewn in at the end of the (cheap) zippers apparently have done the trick... although, I am very careful not to stress the (cheap) zippers with any undo load stress. The top four (4) straps on the rear rack keep all in place even with a load."
"The reason this is a problem is that the rear, lower portion of the bag may (will) become caught in the spokes or your rear wheel. However, if you load the bag differently, like putting your phone, keys, and wallet in the small outside pouch with nothing in the larger compartment, then the outside pouch will push the whole thing into the spokes of your back wheel and you will have a problem."

"This rack seemed a good choice to mount Ibera Bicycle Bag PakRak Clip-On Quick-Release All Weather Bike Panniers (Pair), Includes Rain Cover, and I have been impressed with what I've seen of Ibera's PakRak system. The Verve 1 has threaded mounting holes on the seat stays, and the rack attached easily."
"I solved the problem with a trip to Lowes for some larger metric screws for the fender mounting locations near the rear axle and some self tapping screws to secure it to the frame under the seat. In my first attempt, I anchored it to the seat mounting tube of the frame. I suppose this could have all been resolved by adding some additional, larger screws and some type of mounting collar for the upright tube or a flat, two piece clamp running across the two tubes which run from the upright to the axle."
"The bag attaches very securely to the PakRak mount and because the weight is sitting right where you are I never felt a difference in my ride.""
"One thing to note is I flipped the connectors at the top around so they were wider apart and not rubbing tougher. Given it is a little harder to install the top connector to the frame on the Ibera but on the trail I think it will hold up better. I was on gravel with mud, pot holes, and some curb jumps...overall they worked but was afraid the clips would break off. The frame is extremely sturdy and can hold just about as much weight as you can manage to put on it."

"However when I started putting stuff inside I was pleasantly surprised how much stuff fit inside."
"I purchased the BV Bicycle Strap-On Saddle/Seat Bag (Large), as I needed to be able to hold my wallet, phone, tire pullers, a patch kit, a spare tube, and a multi-tool -- I have mounts for other items, such as a mini bike pump. Pros: Starting on the outside of the bag, this is a solidly-built gray-on-black canvas bag with a cardboard insert sewn into the fabric to help the bag keep its shape. The rear of the bag also has a solidly-stitched strap on which to secure a bike reflector/light, given you will have to remove your seat post reflector/light in order to attach this bag to your seat post. The bottom of the bag has a solidly-sewn guide through which to thread the strap that secures the strap to your bike seat. Zippers are nicely constructed with pulls on them to assist with use -- from the bottom expandable-compartment zipper, to the zipper that opens the bag’s mouth, they simply feel durable. Inside the bag, on the mouth of the bag, you will find a key holder and a mesh compartment to keep cash, cards, change, etc. Cons: Being nit-picky, while the zippers work well, the one that opens the mouth can be hard to open given you have to slide it over the mouth of the bag (basically against the bottom of your seat) to open the mouth."
"I ordered the smallest version of this bag and it fits comfortably under my road bike seat."
"For starters, I am reviewing in BV saddle bag in SIZE SMALL. However, if all you are looking to fit is a full repair kit, this bag fits everything perfectly. Highly recommended if looking for a saddle bag just large enough to fit all the essentials."
"My current phone is the Galaxy Note 2 which is pretty big and fits no problem with a lot of extra room to spare."
"The strap is a little long and there's nowhere to tuck it so it kind of hangs a little too close to the tire and brake for my comfort."
"I love this little saddle."

"My only two qualms with the item would be that (1) the basket isn't really that big (but then again I didn't check the dimensions before) and (2) the Velcro attachment part does not work for my bike: a Schwinn Discover Women's Hybrid Bike Schwinn Discover Women's Hybrid Bike (700C Wheels),White,28"."

"Pro's: holds the phone in position. I can manipulate the screen without removing the phone from the case. The clip is sturdy and I like that it clicks in so you know it's locked in place. quick release to remove the case from the mount makes it easy to take with you when leaving the bike."
"More importantly, these mounts are adjustable (one of my first purchases was not and did not fit my motorcycle)."
"It also has a ring on the back, I assume if you wanted to take extra step to never losing it you can take a strap and tie it to your bars just incase the mount ever fails."
"Always cautious, we did worry about whether it would be sufficient to hold it at highway speeds, so we took the extra precaution of running a 'safety line' through the zipper that attaches to the handlebar in case the click mount gives out - then it would just dangle and not fall on the road (and probably be crushed by other cars). Sometimes the glare from the sun can make it harder to read, but you can adjust its direction with the ball mount, so it's not that big of a deal."
"Likewise, there's a loop on the back of the phone case so you can run a cord to your handlebars just in case, for whatever reason, the mount fails or the phone falls, it won't hit the ground. The Note 5 fits along with a slim case, but the edges of the phone push a bit on the case, which creates a gap between the plastic front of the case and the phone."
