The medium looks pretty interesting to me. It seems to have gotten short changed in the photo dept so I just e-mailed Mark a list of questions. The detachable pouch is a handy idea. This would probably be my main bag. I have a Hobo that's getting a bit beyond beausage after 6 years & it's easy to limit out on a day trip with food & clothes. Based on the cubic inches, the medium is double the size of the Hobo & a more useful shape. May even work for overnights if it has the flap & can be over-stuffed a bit. Prices look competitive. My only grump is black. Rather have the tannish/greenish 50s camping gear look of the Baggins line. Can't have everything.

I just got a look at the new Sackville bags over at the RBW Web site. Wow, they're humungous. The "Large" is the largest large I've seen in a regular-shaped saddlebag (I think it's bigger than the Carradice Camper by a little bit). Anyone out in Riv-land planning on buying one of these new bags? I don't plan to; I only have two "regular" bikes and they're both suitably saddlebagged at present. (Also, I don't yet know how I feel, exactly, about a saddlebag that comes with its own engraved serial number plate.) But I'm quite curious to hear if anyone is planning to purchase one and what uses are planned for it. (The idea that a saddlebag is spec'd to fit a 14" laptop certainly makes the case for ditching your briefcase pannier...)
