Is this bag comfortable/efficient/secure for bicycling?

yes, it tends to be a bit stiff, but it's still a comfortable fit and secure.

I use this bag 5 days a week to carry all of my stuff with me to work. I travel via motorcycle about 20 miles each direction during rush hour traffic (about 1 hour each way) and I have no complaints. I wanna put it out there that slings are probably my personal preference since when I was in high school and college and I owned a normal two-strap backpack, I generally only carried it with one shoulder anyway.

Not a good choice because it only has one strap. But truly excellent for school and travel.

only with the side pockets the main mesh its tight squeeze but possible. but too tight for easy access. it held supplies for a 105 mile bike ride no problem nuk tablets power bars and tools with a patch kit. over all not a bad forward bag and for the price it is worth it.

I have taken such bikes in the soft nylon duffle bags and checked them as luggage. 3/4 times everything was fine, 1/4 (Southwest Air) banged it up, bending the chainring a bit. It still works. If there were a way to make a same size cushioned/stiffer bag, then I would say it would be fine.

i've found it to be very durable ... no signs if strain. I do not, however, carry that kind of weight in my bag. Have you considered saddle bags and a mule? ;-)

Yes with care (gentle cycle). I liked this bag so much I bought a second one just to have.

I don't think this would be my first choice for just a regular bike unless you are *really* paranoid about having it stolen. It weighs a ton, it's massive and biking with this thing in your backpack seems onerous. I use it on my Harley Davidson simply because my Harley is expensive and because I have a saddle bag to put it in so the weight doesn't bother me.

it might be a little too big, i have a honda VTX 1800C with a fairing and hard bags, its a snug fit on my bike. i had ordered the XXL one first and it was too big and dragged on the ground. it is waterproof with felt like inner liner, and vent pockets by handle bars. very nice cover.

I actually ride my bike with this bag slung across my shoulder/back. It, for me, is all about how tight you make the straps. Also... strap goes on opposite shoulder from bag... but I suspect you already know that. Same shoulder? With just about any bag on same side as strap... there is good chance you'll have slippage...

Yes, just cheecked, that's what I have, but I wouldn't recommend it. It's a tight fit, but my biggest issue with this product is that it's not very secure. I have actually taken it off my bike and currently use Panier bags on the back and carry a rickshaw bag... LOVE!

It is comfortable for short distances. I ended up replacing it with this one: Retrospec Bicycles Saddle Fixed Gear Single Speed Fixie Urban Road Bike (Black, One Size)

Yes! That's why I love this bag so much. I can carry it whichever way I want. And the backpack straps are super easy to connect and are really padded for comfort. :)

Yes definitely comfortable but it is a little bulky considering if you're weaving in and out of crowds at Disneyland. I've carried this around during my vacation in Costa Rica and it had not only my DSLR in it but also some of my personal belongings such as passport, money, cards, and keys. I do recommend it for its sturdy and simple design.

It is roomy but my instinct says no. I haven't tried it because I only have one bike. The beauty is, you can buy one and see if it works, then if not buy another.

Yes it's very comfortable. I'm very happy with the bag. It's the perfect every day diaper bag.

Absoltely not. The bag sits lower than your thighs - more at knee level - but it does not rub against your knees either. It is not a concern. The bag is as wide as or maybe a bit larger, depending on your frame, as the top tube of your bike. It does not get in your way. However, I would recomend a back of saddle bag instead if you do not have many things to carry, as the bag kind of clutters up the look of the bike. If you are not concerned about that, it's a great bag!

I ride with mine and it is very comfortable. I do sometimes not fasten the chest strap because it can "ride" up and get a little irritating. Hope this helps.
