Deacon, I hitch my hoss (Sam) to the post all day and can’t leave the saddlebags. I use my saddlebags not just for grocery shopping, but for my work stuff (I teach and need 3-ring binders, notebooks, books, etc.). I also want bags that do 2x duty for touring, when I get the chance. So, conservatively, I mount/unmount them at least 4 times daily, but often more like 6 or more. It all adds up…I want bags that are easy on and off.
If I were buying bags primarily for touring, I’d definitely consider the Rivendell bags more seriously. > On Mar 1, 2019, at 4:30 PM, 'Deacon Patrick' via RBW Owners Bunch > <rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com> wrote: > > Gotcha, John.
