What Others Say
Fits everything and fast to load/unload
This is a great bag that has made my bike commute so much easier. On one side I am able to pack a dress shirt, pants, underwear, socks, and my ThinkPad laptop. On the other side I can fit my belt and size 11 dress shoes. I use the center section for my lunch, cell phone, bike lights, and storage for my windbreaker once I get warmed up. I use the bungee on the top to hold a rolled up towel. It fits everything just right.
The bag is also very fast to put on and take off the rack and is stable while riding over trails. I did find all of the different alphabel soup of Trunk Bag models very confusing, especially since this bag arrived with a tag that said 'DX' rather than 'DXP', but it is indeed the 'DXP' model. I would definitely ... Read More
Great - it has just about replaced my car for short run errands
I purchased this bag and the Topeak Explorer Bike Rack from Amazon about a month ago. Since purchasing the combo, I have used my car only three times since to go shopping around town - including groceries. For instance, a carton for a dozen eggs fits perfectly inside the main compartment. Haven't lost one yet!
The fold-up panniers are great and easy to use and put back into their pocket. The slide-mount of the bag is fantastic. I can take the bag off and on in a snap and take it into work or the store.
You will need another rear-facing passive red reflector for your bike - I mounted mine on the Explorer rack mount. The reflector behind your seat will be blocked.
I also took the advice of a previous reviewer ... Read More
Nice bag.
Nice bag but much smaller than pictured. I love the rail on the beam action that makes this go well with this bag.
So Far, So Good
I am a newer cyclist, and had been looking for a rack/pannier combination that would allow me to run local errands by bike. My local bike shop suggested that I consider a trunk bag and recommended the Topeak products. I bought the Explorer rack, but they didn't have a roomy enough Topeak bag at the LBS. I found this one on Amazon and I'm glad I did.
It has the best of everything -- the bag itself is very roomy, with room to expand at the top, and has fold down panniers on the sides. I haven't used the panniers yet because the bag is so roomy. It easily holds a jacket, snacks, repair kit, first aid kit, all the things I need when I take my kids on rides. If it slows me down, I'm not aware of it. I don't feel the extra weight at ...

Trunk Bag
Excellently built and designed. Plenty of compartments and the main compartment is expandable. Will even hold an extra water bottle in vertical position.
Since it's made for its own rack system it was necessary to use a strip of sticky backed, non skid carpet foam between my regular rack and this bag to hold it securely in place. This is an easy fix.
