Hard Wearing Saddlebag Recommendations

Can anyone recommend a decent saddlebag for endurance mountain bike events? I have tried a Lezyne, Altura and Specialized – all have failed on events lasting over 10 hours – what can people recommend?

?? What re you doing to them ?

I’ve been using a Topeak saddlebag for a couple of years and it seems in good order. Been used for 24hour, 12hour, commuting etc.

Topeak wedge range is very good. They also connect to IBeam saddles

Arkel, pricey but it is the only one I’ve used that has survived more than one year.
