I've bought and sold a few of these and really like them a lot..made in Los Angeles, CA. USA! 

This my new Burrito Bag (the small one) in turmeric (looks gold) and pink on my dark blue Bike Friday. I think it would look great on a Mermaid Platypus, Appaloosa or Gus. Road Runner Bags, they're good!

Nice Joe! I've had my eyes on one of their Jammer bags for a while. I need to move my cargo up front now that I'm riding with a copilot attached to my seat tube.

It's worth mentioning that they make bags for Velo Orange too!

Road Runner Bags are the best bicycle bags.  The Jumbo Jammer is my all time favorite bag.  I also have the Mini-Rando bag VO sells which is well executed and a bargain.

Sorry the pics are so 'inside on a rainy day' lame. I need to get outside tomorrow and take better ones. It was cold! And rainy!

I'll come out of infrequently lurking to second the quality of LA-based Road Runner bags. I actually have their camera strap for my Fuji X-T2. Excellent - simple, easily adjusted to fit snug to the body (I wear it in the front). Great for smaller film cameras to keep it on Riv theme. Will make my "tried and liked" list for 2022 I usually post on IG... maybe even Best Material Good of the Year!

Own a wide selection of Road Runner bags and they have been my go to for the last 5 years for sure.  Burrito bags, tool rolls, backpacks.  All great stuff!

Don't miss the Comrad lightweight packable backpack.  I bike everywhere and travel everywhere with that packable bag.  Folds up and can fit into a bottle cage when not needed.

Happy to hear the feedback on their camera strap as I was eyeballing it and currently roll with a Fuji X-T1.

I've been buying from Road Runner since 2015. I have a medium rolltop backpack, a couple tool rolls, a Jumbo Jammer for bikepacking, a Lil' Guy fanny pack, and maybe one more. Whenever I use my rolltop backpack (~3-4 days a week) I think "damn, this thing is going to last my entire life." I love the Jumbo Jammer. I use my Lil Guy almost daily for 6 years now. The company's run by great people and I wholeheartedly recommend their bags.

Sure I'll pile on the Road Runner praise train. Got started with them buying through VO as others have mentioned. I now have the VOxRR saddle bag, a small Jammer, and a couple stem bags. Mostly I love they make everything in burgundy cordura so I can be all matchy matchy.

The only bag I haven't loved is my Jammer and that's only because I was trying to use it on a commuter bike. I was taking it off at every stop and it's a real hassle. As a bike packing bag where it just stays on the bike, however, it's AWESOME! Really want to get a pair of jumbo jammers to use as panniers on my bike camping bike but I think that's too much money to shell out.

While on the subject I also like my bags from Ortlieb, Restrap, Revelate, and Outer Shell :-)
Pat in DC who has waaaaaaay too many bike bags and not enough time to ride.
