i didn't mean about the bag, i meant that its on sale at the hip shop in soho.
also, quite how is the bag far superior ? does it hold stuff ? is it waterproof ? is it comfy ? mine is .. does yours shoot laser beams out of it at stupid motorists ? now that WOULD make it far superior .. does it have built in sat nav on the shoulder strap buckles .. miniaturised ? now that WOULD make it far superior .. if we are talking about construction .. or comfyness then its all subjective really isn't it.
I have read a lot about Scotts bags and no doubt they are bloody brilliant but you know, i cant accept that statement that its far superior just because of who made it and where its made ... i KNOW they are good bags .. Great even .. but the bag that i have is great .. FOR ME! it cost as much as i wanted to pay and does exactly what i want it to do .. take off your rose tinted hipster glasses and stop making comments like that just because you feel you have to!
shit .. see what i meant in my last post.. arrrrrrrrgh .. this is why i dont come on this forum ..
it's not just superior because of the fact it's made by a bloke living in the east end of London, but it's made by someone who's an ex-courier who know the best and worse part of a messenger bag, as well as recieving a lots of feedback from other courier who use his bag and constantly improving the design (remember, each bag is made only by him), rather than a factory batch of the same job that'd take at least a year before they can impended the new 'improved' design.
I find that the Grobag tick every single box, especially the flexibility of carrying different size and shape package, it's so well designed that carrying an entire bicycle on a 'middle range' Grobag for 11 miles is surprisingly comfortable.
Another aspect of the flexibility is that it's easy to adjust the bag exactly to fit you perfectly, my missus is quite small, 5'4 with a really skinny body whether I'm a burdy 6'1 bloke, the Grobag is flexible enough to fit her nicely as well as me.
Quite frankly, the Grobag is really cheap for what it is, I only mentioned it because my missus (Trip) originally wanted that VAGX now got a Grobag which is infinity better for carrying extensive amount of equipment around London.
