Strengths:    Big enough to hold a regular sized men's wallet (many wouldn't) and plenty of other stuff, expands, basic black, internal neoprene pocket can keep things separate.

Weaknesses:    Zipper wraps around and velcro straps get in the way. If you want to tighten the bag with the straps to secure it to the saddle rails, you're making it harder to unzip the bag. Also on the pricey side but part of that has to do with where I bought it (see note below).

Bottom Line:   
Great bag, very durable with a tough fabric but as I stated in the "Weaknesses" section, it could use an improvement in design. For example, the Cannondale bags have a zipper that doesn't get in the way of the velcro straps. I generally use my bike for commuting so it's nice that this bag will easily hold my wallet, keys, and other stuff. Other bags wouldn't accomodate a regular men's wallet. Note for Central Californians: it seems as though Tri-Sport in Fresno bumps up the price on most things so you can probably find it for $5 less at other places.
