I don't have a bike rack, does this bag still work ok if I wear with the shoulder strap as I ride?

This bag is rather large & bulky. I would not ride with it as a shoulder bag. If you don't want to put a rack on your bike you can get a back pack and roll your clothing up then place it inside. Some manufacturers offer a full size backpack that has a hydration bladder in it. CamelBak offers 2 of them available on Amazon: 1) Octane, 2) Motherlode. The Motherlode is the larger one.

The bag comes with 4 straps which give you many attachment options on the back of the bike. I don't know what type of bike you have, but on mine the passenger seat only serves as a flat base for the bag to sit on.

Yes. It has two straps and you can carry the bag like a back pack. I ride my bike with it like a back pack.

I believe so, but it appears the bag would extend out much further than with normal handle bars. I would use a bag that attaches to a rear beam rack or seat post rack instead.

I just looked at my wife's bike that uses this bag and can't see any reason it wouldn't work with straight bars.

Have not tried to use a trunk bag, but it should work since the rack is not fully vovered

I have not used it for bicycling. But it is my daily commuter. I'm inclined to think it would work very well. Between the shoulder straps waist strap and chest strap you can put it anywhere you want it and it will stay put. I think any or all of those straps can be removed if you don't care to use them. Also a little narrower than some packs, so I think the aerodynamics would be pretty good for biking. Beware its not a very large pack, to make sure its the size you want. It's exactly what I was looking

The straps are not padded. I have the bag loaded but it does not dig into your shoulder.

There is no shoulder strap that comes with the bag but I wear mine over my shoulder with the straps it has. There is about a 9 inch gap from the top of the bag to the straps so when hanging on my shoulders the top of the bag is around my ribs. Hope this helps!

No. That is a weak strap. You must have a pouch to keep you equipment.I hope help you guy.

Sure. The shoulder straps hooks are plastic, and sometimes pop off, but if you stowed the strap in the bag, shouldn't be a problem. No pockets at all, strictly a duffle bag.

No. If for some reason you were able to put the bag over your shoulders, it would be most uncomfortable. These straps are really meant for carrying in your hands. With the wheels, the bag rolls easily.

My husband has been using this bag for several months without any problems. There are metal clips on the underside of the bag where you can clip it to your bike rack, and that will keep it safe and secure.

I don't use the shoulder strap because it tends to slip and fall off my shoulder. I just carry mine by the handle attachment...

Frankly, carrying it over my shoulder was my ONLY option as the bag's wheels don't turn. They go straight and the bag tips over when you round a corner.My workaround was to wear it "crossbody" because, as the other owner mentioned, it's unstable if draped over a shoulder.

It is a large bag. So not very realistic if you want to loop it between your legs on the top tune. Keep in mind the bag itself is not mounted. The bike rack is mounted, the bag hooks to the bag with two S hooks.
