That material may be available in semi-translucent shades, but this stuff 
is pretty darn opaque.  On the conspicuity front, you could absolutely 
plaster the thing with reflective stickers.  I have gaffer tape in day-glo, 
and I have glow in the dark tape that would be pretty entertaining to look 
at.  But I don't have good retroreflective tape on hand.  I've got a couple 
tape wholesalers I've purchased from.  

I took the handlebar bag into the office and the postal scale.  The bag 
weighs 360 grams and has a 14.75 liter capacity.
