Assuming the cheap bag is supported well, you could get some useful results. I had great success with a much-modified $25 Nashbar Elite bag I used for a couple of years on my Kogswell P/R. But if the bag isn't mounted and supported on a rack the same way as the better bag would be, the results might not be comparable, in that a bag that's loose and free to swing to and fro would have an undesirable effect on the steering that a better-installed bag would not have. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
