I don't like saddle bags. I don't like the sway when you're out of the saddle , I don't like the crazy packing/unpacking rigmarole. I don't like the incompatibility with dropper posts, I don't like limited space, I don't like the ignominy of trying to swing your leg over your saddle.
Therefore I want to be a bag on rack guy. I've tried a couple of different sizes of dry bag and they've been okay but I think I want a 25l slim waterproof rucksack instead. Something that will hold its form when strapped down to a rack.
The Xplorer does loom nice. But it might be worth one with tabs on each side so you can put a cord though them and actually tie the bag to the rack not just cinch the whole bag on.

Is the answer always Ortlieb?
