After my first grocery run, with about 15 to 20 lbs. The lamination glue I used is still drying, and the bag has lost some weight. It's now just under two lbs..It works great..... (I am now working on a new, smaller bag, less bootish)...My Atlantis is my car, year round, and my rear rack top bag is very important! Everything has to be carried up the stairs, so having the bag and my front basket quick release makes getting everything up a three trip, trip. One for the bag, one for the basket (not shown) and one for the bike. For a big shopping trip, I add panniers. I have carried 2-8' 2x2's, 2 4' steel bars, and forty lbs. of bird seed, on one trip... <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-v-LAA_tEWGY/WgksH1dcytI/AAAAAAAAAVg/fG26QMp9wmc6niiD_6ZDbmHU9oV0DHVAQCLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_6305.JPG>Clayton Bailey, Bend
