Sackville TourSacks?

[Mike]

So what's the deal with these? How are people liking them? Do they attach firmly to the rack? Quiet? Easy to remove? I'm sorta thinking of getting some for my Hilsen. I previously had a Sackville SaddleSack (med) but just wasn't crazy about it. I wanted to like it and use but never really did. I hated the sway and didn't like the way my rack fit to support it. I ride a 63cm Hilsen and so having the weight so high also seemed to impact handling. But I did love the styling and material. 

I'm pretty sure that I could fit everything for a tentless s24o in those with a basket up front. 

I wish they mounted similar to Ortliebs and you could just use one at time. I'm not someone who minds riding with one pannier on the bike.

I have a set of gray ones I used for a while but found I wasn't really in love with them. For me, the concern is that since there is no zipper or "bag closure" (like on the Carradice saddlebags) to close before closing the flap, dust from dirt trails gets inside. Also, their shape is not really laptop friendly.

 

Still, they held very well to the rack and bike, didn't sway and didn't cause any problems. I still have them and will probably plan on giving them another try, possibly on the Betty.
