Bags worked well, the pod sac/on one bar bag itself was great, zero issues. The holster for it was way too floppy before I added plastic inside, would waggle constantly. The bar/frame a attachment velcro that came with it went straight in bin, used some better stuff. Added two extra straps to hold bag up against bar instead of hanging below. Worked perfect zero flappage even on some decent descents.
Rear bag was a madison own brand "caribou" bag in large. Packing it well gavr a decent shape. Wrapped an old tube on seatpost and over frame to add grip and reduce chance of ripping on qr. Added one extra strap around saddle rails and the bulk of the bag, made a big difference to swaying and the bag wanting yo slide down seatpost.
The smooth drybag inside the outer works really well, makes getting stuff in and out a quick job. Not gong to last a rtw trip, but totally fine for us occasional riders who maybe use it 5 to 10 nights a year
