Help needed...
I bought Alpkit's tapered dry bag because i thought this would be the cheapest way to carry some extra luggage on my road bike.

On the website they say you can attach it under the seat using the straps provided. I realise this isn't going to be as study as a proper system like the Koala, Apidura or a holster/bag kit, but i can't get it to work at all.
Within 2 minutes of cycling the bag swings away from the seat post and bounces around on my rear wheel. It's missing the dedicated seat post velcro, instead relying on a strap under the seat and one round the seatpost.
I think i'm just going to have to splash out on a holster, but has anyone had any luck getting one of these to work on it's own?
