Errr, another one from Topeak? Mine's survived being run over by a tractor, ruined my bloody tyre levers tho! were you using a "QR" type, or traditional straps?

Have broken the plastic QR's on two Topeak bags with simple offs.

Partner has the Bontrager ones which seem a bit more crashproof, but I'm swapping to Carradice for the next and hopefully last time.

Ortlieb Mudthingmies are ace- I've got one on my commuter, it's done about 3 years of all-weather commuting and all the cheap tools inside are still rust free. The ones in my [i]garage[/i] have rusted ๐Ÿ˜†

Funny I ordered a normal strappy one and was sent a clippy one instead. Still amazed it broke within 6months (and I don't ride that much!) Thinking maybe because it was on the big side it put extra strain the clippy bit.

But thanks for the recommendations.
Oh, and sorry again ๐Ÿ˜€

Lezyne have used one for years, well made not problems with the zips, held on to the seat rails with velcro ๐Ÿ™‚
