• After trying all possible options for commuting I’ve settled on a carradice super c saddle bag and bagman qr. light, sturdy, pretty expandable/adaptable when you need it/easy to fit and remove and can be carried like a normal bag with a shoulder strap. Front racks are au fait but unless you need the flexibility of strapping stuff to a rack, I don’t think you can beat a super c. Photo below, they’re massive, like 24L max I think? I ran various front rack setups for the last 6 years but decided for commuting I prefer the little bit of weight at the back, without the heft and wind block on the front.

  • Came to the same conclusion myself about two years ago. So much effort going into how to carry stuff well on a bike and it turns out the problem was solved by Carradice about a hundred years ago.
    Light, no impact on steering, removable and (despite what I’ve had said to me) Classy
