 Should be the standard for wedges July 24, 2007

Ok. It's a wedge. It doesn't really have to do much except hold a few things and fit under the saddle. My requirements were:
1.) Well made--check.
The construction of the Topeak Aero Wedge is solid. Quality fabric on the upper portion; the lower portion (lighter in color in the pic) has a plastic-like shell (to help repel water and dirt). The quick release buckles (for the straps that attach it to the saddle rails) are (relatively) beefy for what they have to do. The pack has some reinforcements so that it holds its shape regardless of whether you have it empty or full. Also, when attached to my saddle, the Topeak Aero Wedge does not rattle or move around too much while I ride.
2.) Holds my stuff--check.
I needed a seat wedge to hold 3 things for my ride--my wallet and cash, my (large) cellphone (Cingular 8125), and my keys. The medium Topeak Aero Wedge does so with room to spare--AND that's without having expanded the thing. I can easily stuff a small toolkit, tube or a wrench or two in there as well if I expand it. If you're stuck for space, there are a few elastic loops on the bottom which are designed to hold a small hand/CO2 pump.
3.) Safety features--check.
My final requirement was that the wedge has some basic safety features. The Topeak Aero Wedge has a reflective strip across the rear of the pack as well as a loop on the lower portion of the rear to clip a reflector or a light to it. I don't understand why so many seat packs out there do not feature this.
Some other features: The interior has a couple of elastic loops across the top, useful for holding a tool kit or a tube separate from your other stuff. The opening flap has a small mesh pocket that you can use to hold money or your keys. The opening flap is also gusseted (small flaps on either side that go up approximately halfway), so that you can open it while it's attached to the bike and stuff won't fall out to one side or the other.
Finally, I chose the "strap-on" version versus the "clip-on" version (Areo Wedge Pack with fixer) because 1.) I feel that the straps allow the pack to ride "higher" and "tighter" into the saddle, and 2.) the quick release tab on the clip-on version seems thin and flimsy and might break off. I don't know if it's replaceable on the clip-on version.
Regards.
Nice bag! September 23, 2008

This Topeak seat bag is a great little bag. The medium size is a perfect fit on my road bike. Just big enough to hold all my essentials, yet not so big that it touches the backs of my legs while pedaling. I can fit 2 inner tubes, 2 tire levers, multi-tool, a C02 inflater & extra cartridge, plus my cellphone into this bag. I also love how it slopes downward to contour the lines of a road bike. But I think one of the best features of this bag, is that there are elastic straps and a pocket to hold loose items in place so that they don't bounce around and make a lot of racket.
Big enough and small enough April 12, 2007

I bought this pack for my Trek 6000 mountain bike. It is just big enough for a spare tube and the Blackburn Airfix inflator/multitool. It is small enough to fit perfectly under the back of my saddle without any protrusion and small enough not to add too much weight. I chose the velcro version because they can be tightened up closer to the bottom of the saddle and more securely. The other version seems to hang from the saddle and bounce freely under it.
As a side note, I have the small aero wedge pack with velcro for my Trek road bike because the tube takes much less space. A tight fit with both and carrying what I really need in case of a flat, chain problem or necessary tweak.

I've been using it for over a year now on my road bike and I'm very satisfied with this pack. It looks sleek, easy to attach and remove, stays secure and fits a lot of things because it's expandable. I carry spare tube, wrench set, tire levers, power bar or two and a phone in it. Once I was able to cram in my light wind jacket inside too! :)
If you use rear flashlight, it's easily attaches to this pack with a clip and stays on.

This bag is perfect for any bike. It has a surprising capacity and a sharp style. The size and shape is perfect for storing spare tubes and repair tools with perhaps room to spare for keys. Thanks to the secure straps, this bag stays put and doesn't budge. One reason I chose this bag over other bags such as the Specialized dirt bag is that that this bag maintains it's shape no matter what is inside. Where other bags tend to look unattractive and deformed when partly filled, this bag always remains stylish. An excellent product.
