You say "that limits me to the Small or the Medium Sackville," but that assumes that you're limiting yourself to Sackville bags. I use large and medium Saddlesacks with a rack, and don't think I'd like them without a rack to support them---I think they'd sag too much for my liking (but apparently not enough for others' liking, and I defer to them if they've tried it because I haven't). If you insist on no rack in back, I'd suggest looking at Carradice bags. They're good canvas bags in the old-school tradition, are less expensive than Sackville bags, and are available in a nearly-continuous range of sizes.
