British Eagle Elise

A good product overall. However, I found two snags. 1, the fitting is by velcro straps that wrap under the rack and the bag moves around and is not very secure. 2, the lid closure is again by velcro and is not secure enough. I overcame both these flaws by using a bungee over the top, which secures the bag in place and holds the lid firmly closed but has made a permanent indentation at the front of the bag body. On the plus side, it is amply big enough for a small toolkit, a camera and some other bits. I have not had to use the side compartments at all yet. There is a strap end sewn into the front exterior but I do not know what it is for, as the accompanying shoulder strap connects to D-rings. I bought this bag because it is for my Dawes Galaxy Cross cycle and matches my Dawes Pannier Bags. The construction quality is good and it looks like it will last many years.
