Opening the bag at the back does not allow the use of a bar tube bag which I find to be a nice compliment to the front opening Little Loafer. The 2 bags work really well together on a Hilsen, just like a banana bag and big loafer in back. So I like the front opening bag because it allows more luggage options, and I have not found riding in the rain to be an issue as the rain fly over the zipper is a good one. Thanks, Ron F.

I like the look and feel of the canvas persoanlly. Both at good bags. They open at the front, while the new RBW bag opens at the rear, which is a better idea IMO.

I just bought a Mark's rack, and I want to put a bag on it. RBW currently has canvas versions of the Nigel Smythe Little Loaf, with tweed versions due in June. I'm wondering if I should hold out for the tweed, go with canvas, or consider either the Sackville or Baggins bags. Anyone have experiences with any of the bags?
