Will this bag interfere with my canti brakes hanging on the front?

I haven't had a problem. The straps can be loosened so that everything moves freely.

I did not have that problem on either of the bikes I used it on. One has cantilever brakes, the other has side pull types. The tapered bottom of the bag keeps it out of the way.

As long as the outside of the drops are unencumbered. There is a piece of hardware that the axle goes through. The hardware is not large but needs a flat surface, I did find that it can be a wee awkward with a rear rack mounted (the mountain bolts were close to the axle).

the bag is designed to be attached to crossbars front and back, and to the racks on both sides. I simply put a exercise mat on the roof. I drove 2,600kms (1,600 miles) and no scratches. If your basket is large enough so that the bag doesn't "spill" over, I guess you should be alright.

Yes. I'm currently on our second bag. Please note that slipstream wind action may cause elements of the bike(s) to wear holes in the bag. To prevent this I cover the bikes with and old blanket before zipping up the bag. I also put foam drink holders on each pedal for the same reason.

I had no problems using this bag on my Trek cross bike. The handle did not interfere with any of the brake cables.

Yes, the velcro will be doubled over (hooks on fuzz) but you should be able to still get it all under the cables and then the weight of whatever's inside the bag won't affect the cables. The bike I use this on has the cables under the top tube and the are between the bag and the frame but I haven't had issue. On the seat tube I did what you will have to do, run the velcro between the cable and the frame. If you're adding/removing this daily I could see it being a hassle, if it's a one time deal I wouldn't worry too much about it. If the cable is in a tube/guide/sheath then I wouldn't even give it a second thought either way.

I would have to say no, the bags bolt on between the axel and bump stop. Maybe if you put blocks to lower the bump stop bracket to bolt them on

No, the bar in the middle would prevent the front wheel from being attached to anything.

the bag hangs down the center of the head rest. It's designed to hang in the center the bag would sit awkward to the side. Hope that helps

For my bike (the rear brake cable also runs along the bottom of the top rail) the straps actually go between the cable and the rail so it doesn't interfere. There are two straps on the bottom, they both can go under the cable. There is also a third strap that straps to the neck of your handlebars so the bag doesn't slide down the rail towards your seat.

You could but it might be overkill. Bag is large and unless its a fat tire bike with a large rack I think it's going to mess with your ride

Hi Joseph you could leave the pedals on but I think it will damage the bag or maybe the spokes if the wheels are close to them. I would remove them!

You're probably good to go with a suspended rack IF you have a fender over your rear wheel. The bike frame plus the fender mounts will likely keep this bag away from your spokes.

Probably gonna hang off the sides of the seat a little..unless you have a larger rack on back??

I put the bag over my handle bars, zipper side facing me so I can get into it while riding. There are adjustable straps so you can tighten it and it doesn't move around. I really like the bag!

No. It is the bag which prevents the debris from being sucked through the motor and blown out the exhaust.

It attaches to outside of the frame on the axel ! It sticks out far enough that your disk brakes do not get in the way ! I have disk brakes and have not had a problem
