DayTripper 8L Bicycle Handlebar Stem Bag|Attaches Over Bars With KLICKfix Quick Release|Durable Water Resistant 600D Cordura | Front Bike Picnic Basket|Stylish Functional Multi-purpose Crossbody

I was super excited to get this bag to use as a side bag on my recumbent trike. It matched the color scheme on my trike and has some really great features. It even comes with a rain cover that I wasn't aware it had before it arrived. I used it two times and really liked everything about the bag, then the KlickFix mount broke off. The mount point was held on with four very cheap metal Rivits? Tacks? I'm not sure what to call them. I'd bumped the bag from the side against a car, and my momentum just stripped the bag right off the mount plate. The mount remained attached to the KlickFix on my trike side bar, and the bag ended up on the ground behind me. I've been able to repair it by using four small bolts and some washers. The rest of the bag seems pretty well made, but the hardware used to attach the KlickFix mount plate to the bag was not very robust.

This is my second Kulie Klickfix bag -- both are stem mounted on my Tern Eclipse bike, this one is mostly similar to my extant, imported gray one, but with a little bit more utility -- the side mesh bottle holders and the transparent map topper (similar to my THIRD klickfix bag -- a Rixen and Kaul) and a couple of more accessible pouches for grabbing random stuff on the go. The black/orange is whatever, and the gray, heathered fabric one I have is prettier, but this is far more practical. Everyone uses these things differently, but for me it lets me keep everything for a long ride/emergencies in the bag and maybe a couple of things in the underseat Wedge, leaving my backpack free for either streamlined hydration only, or even for light errands/shopping or camping.I do a fair amount of forest riding, and we have bears, coyotes, wolves and the occasional escaped pitbull to worry about -- statistically unlikely -- but having a can of bear spray in easy reach is a real comfort deep in the mountains on cinder trails and forest service roads. I'm not a huge aerodynamics worrier, but I figure the small blocky chunk at the front can't possibly be any worse than the slab of middle aged "abs" I'm otherwise arresting the wind with.Noting a couple of complaints in the reviews alongside mine, the Kulie store is clear that it doesn't include the mount, at least on the listing I bought from, although one of the reviews seems to be about customer service on that issue -- so fair enough -- but I've had no issues. The bag is high quality -- anecdotally stronger than my Rixen and Kaul bag, which lost rivets from the mounting plate that I had to MacGuyver with some tapping screws. And AMAZINGLY when I bought this Kulie bag, there was a MASSIVE discount coupon. I was tempted to buy a couple of these, but I really don't need two. That said the coupon makes it tempting as heck....

Unfortunately this does not come with the bar attachment, and that's another $25 or so, and not Prime. It's a big bag, the fabric feels nice, but it's not super structured. Velcro map pocket that can come off on the top, and lots of pockets inside. It's a nice bag, but I think a bit overpriced.

I ordered this bag and the KlickFix Handlebar adapter. I received only the bag, so with no way of attaching the bike to my bag it is far less useful. I have sent emails to every customer service email address listed on their website, messaged their Facebook and instagram pages and received no response. I am very disappointed to have to leave a low review to get attention, but I spent over $160 with this company and gotten a nice but useless bag when I was looking for a cargo holder for my bike.
