Thought of Barley until I purchased a Nelson Longflap.......and glad I did. The Barley would be too small except in ideal weather (for me) In the summer I use a Banana bag for tools,tube, wallet and phone but in the rainy Northwest I need capacity for rain gear and a change of clothing etc. for the other nine months of the year. I imagine a Barley would be a nice bag to leave on all year with perhaps another (maybe a front bag) to supplement. I rack my Nelson now and am in the process of building a spartan rack / bag support / light mount. This rack will be made with the idea of adding and extension piece for a full rack when I want to camp or whatever. Still working on the design.......with bags more is better when you actually want to carry stuff. When you go big you find stuff to carry that you might actually need or want to make cycling more enjoyable and less of a "stranded in the middle of nowhere without what you need athletic event." ; )
