Small, simple, no fuss saddlebag
Easy to fit and remove, e.g. for washing the bike or putting it on the car. The bag doesn't hold much (I can cram in a spare tube, tyre levers and a CO2 cylinder, but anything more than that and the zip won't close). The main thing is that it frees up space in your jersey pockets for other stuff. Seems pretty durable and fairly waterproof, and is very unobtrusive tucked away under the saddle. The shiny plastic bit wipes clean easily. Though the velcro strap is all that keeps it attached to your saddle, I haven't ever had it come loose. Good product, would recommend it.

Scion 210
Excellent compact saddle bag. (Just) fits road tube, lever, CO2 and some paper money former perfectly. Holds very firm to under side of seat. Best compact solution.

Too small
Can only fit one inner tube in, tyre levers at a push. Strap is a little to small so only half of velcro is attached.

At first I thought this was a good product but unfortunately the velcro wasn't enough to keep in secure on the bike and came off during a ride....along with tube, tools, 20bucks co2 inflator and cannister.......expensive saddle bag in the end

Compact and looks great, big enough...
...for inner tube and levers. best saddle bad I've owned and would recommend unless you want one to carry tools cartridges etc.

Top quality.
Fits a tube, pack of patches, levers and a set of latex gloves.
Looks very discreet.

Although its a perfect size and I liked it....the first fell fell off somewhere on a ride (lost my expensive multi tool & spare tube)....maybe I didn't strap it on well enough?!?!
I bought another, same thing happened, lost another multi tool and spare tube.
If you like wasting money (about £150), this useless item is perfect!!!!!

NICE
nice, good fit for saddle, light, and high quality

not secure
A compact bag sitting discreetly beneath seat rails. Will hold one tube, patches, multitool, chain splitter, tyre boot, valve key and spare chain link. All my treasured 'get you home stuff' and I've no idea where it all is! Estimate I've lost somewhere north of £45 because the velcro strap is not long/strong enough.
Worse yet i cannot have used this bag more than half a dozen times. Almost always ride in a group and no-one saw it go.
Summary is size and shape worked for me BUT DON'T BUY THIS AS IT WILL FAL OFF SOONER RATHER THAN LATER.

Lost
Velcro not strong enough. Fell of bike on a number of occasions. Finally lost with all its contents.

Unobtrusive...
This is a nice little bag. Small enough to tuck under your saddle & forget it's there while also being big enough to squeeze in: a small multi-tool, spare tube & patches. It fits securely too. However the quality isn't the greatest as after a (not particularly hard) year of use the zip on mine broke.

Small, but does the job.
Small volume holds tube, multi-tool, and tire levers. I'm still keeping either my pump or CO2 cartridge in my jersey. So far, it fits tightly and doesn't make noise or rub my legs. I'm slightly worried that the single strap might fail one day but it looks to hold firm so far. Looks great on my bike.
Highly recommended for those looking for minimal weight.

very snug
Compact,efficient and good at keeping out the elements

Neat, small
Very slick and attractive, but it is small. I've got a tube, one tyre lever, a chain tool and a couple of Allen keys in and it's full - so need to carry a mini pump or CO2 cartridges elsewhere.
No loop for a light, but I use it with a Fizik saddle and the bespoke light in the ICS (integrated clip system) - super slick!

Great size, shame about the strap
This saddle bad was the perfect size for the road. I squeezed in:
1 inner tube
2 tyre levers
Mt zoom chain tool with allen keys
Missing link
Glueless patches
Unfortunately after a few months it fell off during a ride, unnoticed by me so I lost it and all the contents.
Other small bags have the same velcro straps so I'll go back to putting stuff in my pocket until I find one with a better strap(s).

Small but perfectly formed
Smaller than I was expecting, but big enough to fit a spare tube and some tyre levers. Fits snugly under my saddle of my road bike.

Amazing for its size!!
I used to use a Lezyne Caddy bag but was starting to feel it was a bit too bulky so I took a chance on this. Amazingly it fits my spare inner, tool, levers, patch kit and the nozzle for my Co2 canisters. The only thing I can't fit are the cartridges.
It fits extremely snugly under the saddle and very securely. I'd recommend this product 100%.

Very neat but small
I have managed to fit in a miniature pump, co2 cannister and multi tool. This is ok as I expected it to be small. It fits neatly under the saddle.

Good, small, discreet
I got this as I hate having a saddle bag attached to my bike but wanted to have capacity to carry an extra spare tube. Lightweight, small and discreet :-)
08 July 2015
A little too small
Fits no more than a spare tube and levers, would have been great to get a multi-tool in also, but that was probably poor judgement on my side
25 June 2015
velcro too small
Did a charity 250 ride. This off off as if full the strap just isnt long enough to fully attach around.
Off the bike it goes across just, and thats without having to go around 2 seat bars. Wiggle gave full refund, which shows their good customer service.

Nice and compact
Nice size, fits all essentials in. Only gripe is the velco strap is a little short for my saddle bars.
11 June 2015
The perfect size
In an attempt to make things neater at the back of the bike, I purchased this bag as other reviews had rated it highly.
Its well made and robust and I can just fit a tyre inner tube, two tyre levers and a gas cannister but nowt else!
To be fair, this is exactly what I purchased it for so I'm happy.
Stylish too.

Good Quality
But the bag is smaller than it first appears. It wont even possibly take a medium size smart phone. Good for Gels or key. If you have large valve (80mm) spare tubes, look elsewhere..
22 May 2015
Just perfect
I was looking for a European posterior man satchel but didn't want a suitcase, after reading the reviews I decided to go for this. Glad I did as I can fit in one tube, tyre lever, pack of patches, mini tool and a small ' giant' cafe lock, could fit my key in also if needed. It's very neat on the bike and is very secure with no annoying rattling. As usual a sterling service from wiggle.

A good quality minimalist bag for road bikes
If you're prepared to pack carefully this bag is just about big enough to hold emergency essentials for a road bike user.
I've managed to squeeze in a carefully folded 700x25c tube, a Topeak ratchet rocket mini tool, Park patch kit and a pair of tyre levers.
It tucks tidily beneath the seat rails and I'm happy knowing that these essentials are always stored on the bike and are therefore unlikely to be forgotten.
It's nicely finished, well made and looks good on the bike.
Looses out on the final star as it's relatively expensive and not waterproof.

Excellent
I have just bought this bag and installed an inner tube, 2 tyre levers, C02 cannister and valve and some patches. It is a tight squeeze but it does all fit neatly under the saddle.
For those who don´t believe this is possible check out this youtube video.

Small but big with the right tube.
Yes its small but with the right inner tube ( Schwalbe Extra Light) you can easily fit the following as I have... 1x tube, 2x tyre levers, park tools puncture patches, sandpaper and glue, spoke tool, spare chain links, multitool with chain link extractor... No lie, its a squeeze but if you put most things in a money bag first it makes it easier to close. Great riding bag.

Teeny weeny
I don't know how some people get a tube in there as well as levers and co2 pump. I wanted small, I didn't realise quite how small this was.

Carbon look bag
I bought this bag to go on my new all carbon Felt Aero bike, as I didn't want any big bags and tool kit bottles cluttering up the lines of the bike. The carbon-effect look is great and it does tuck away very nicely under the seat so you hardly know it's there. It is very small though so realistically you can only get 1 inner tube, 1 or 2 tyre levers and a mini tool kit. (I had to separate my mini tool kit into 2 halves and put the main tools only in the bag). Considering it's so small, the velcro strap which wraps through the saddle bars and around the bag, are a touch too long so there is always a bit left hanging off the side past the velcro fasten strip. Apart from that, it does what I need it to do.
