To carry shoes, trousers & shirt (not crumpled!), towel, a spot of lunch, the usual repair kit and a few small sundries...yada-yada.
Yes, its possible to leave shoes and maybe a few other things at work, but I want the capacity to take everything when I haven't planned in advance.
Not interested in a backpack, they're the devils work.
Hit me up!
Carradice bags and rack. I use them with no problems. Trousers and shirt roll up tight for minimal creases
axiom columbus trunk bag on ebay for 19.99 at moment and axiom streamliner rack, i have these and really like them.
+1 for the Carradice bags. I've one of the SQR models - mount point clamps around the seat post and the bag attaches to that, a couple of seconds to attach/detach. They look a bit naff but fine for commuting.
Topeak Super Tourist DX rack with matching Topeak trunk bag - easy to slide on and off rather than faffing with velcro, you can choose the size of bag you want in order to be able to add extra capacity
I have a pannier rack, but only need a bag for the middle flat bit - any recommendations for a easily removable bag?
(sorry for the hijack)

^^^ also interested in that. I have a Tubus Disco rack with Ortlieb pannier bags for the commute which are great, but ideally I'd like a rack bag as well with a similar quick-release system which would be smaller/lighter/more streamlined (as it's on top rather than sticking out to the side) for other rides. I suppose I could just use a saddle/seatpost mounted bag but I'd like to use the rack seeing as it's there. Having trouble finding anything suitable though.
I'm currently using [url= https://www.alpkit.com/products/airlok-xtra-dual-20-litre ]one of these[/url] strapped to [url= http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/161342874501 ]one of these[/url] To carry clothing, lunch and kit to/from work,
I do leave a few things in the office though (Towel, shower stuff, shoes) so if I had to lug everything I'd probably have to opt for a bigger bag maybe 35L...
Thanks all.
I like the look of the [url= http://www.topeak.com/products/TrunkBags%20MTX ]Topeak MTX range[/url] ...nbt, take a moment to bathe in the warm glow of satisfaction that comes from a well judged recommendation!
Nice choice, sir
*preens*
The rack I have is the [url= http://m.evanscycles.com/products/tubus/cargo-rear-carrier-26-inch-black-ec006901 ]Tubus Cargo[/url], it's the only one I've owned so I can't compare it but I can say that it is still going strong after several years of commuting and shopping.
My pannier bags are Ortlieb Classics, which are excellent because they are water proof but I have work through the bottom of one of them. It lasted about 3 years.
