It’s thick material so it will only roll down so far. I store my tent and sleeping mat in it. It’s not waterproof so you need a dry bag or cover if you want to keep it dry.
It has an internal strap to keep everything secure.
No idea on how best to fit it to minimise wobble, it doesn’t look like it will be too secure, need to figure that bit out!
Think the way it has been flat packed means it is all out of shape probably need to stuff it full of something to get back to it’s proper shape
This will be fine for occasional use I imagine, if your going to be using it a lot I’d suggest getting something more rugged/waterproof
For the price though it looks great
Looks OK build wise. As Iain says, just need to work out how to fit. Attachment to fit to the seat post but no straps to secure to the saddle. Will need to rig something.
it does, they originate from some rubbery material on the top of the bag, other end of them ends in the triangular tab of material that has KTM written on it
inside there is a ‘hidden’ velcoed pocket, the plastic base panel that’s loose inside the bag fits in there and gives the bag its shape back
Fitted and filled with my tent and sleeping mat and it looks okay, seem reasonably stable on the ‘wiggle bike from side to side in the garage test’
I’ve used this bag on 1 c2c ride (6 days) and 1 Road tour (2 days)
I’m just getting ready for another week tour and noticed this
This is the section that goes over the saddle rails and secures the bag. The stitching has failed so the bag wobbles side to side (even more than before!)
I contacted ktm and was offered a £10 discount on a new one but if they last this long I don’t want another one.
Currently waiting to hear about a warranty.
I’ve repaired it as best I can but am worried that it might fail again half way through a tour.
How are your bags getting on? Have I just been unlucky?
