+1 on the Jandd recommendation. Cheap, got all the features, durable. It is not 
waterproof like the Revelate, though water resistant - good enough for any 
day-ride. I do use it on some touring, though for long trips will use a custom 
full size bag. Fits several of my bikes 👍

I despise them for the constant leg/fabric on fabric sound. Great salesman that 
I am (sardonic grin), I have a large (21.5” long) Frost River Trezona if anyone 
is interested in trying it. Mounted on the bike and ridden a few hundred yards, 
so near new condition. $75 shipped. PM me if interested.

Used the fairweather half frame bag. carried my pump, tools, wallet, 
cellphone, spare tube on a regular basis. on a few overnights i used, it 
held my hammock, and sleeping pad along with some tools.

I use a half wedge frame bag from roadrunner bags that doesnt monopolize 
too much space. i keep a water bladder/straw in it that is the same size as 
a nalgene. that way i can get to the water easier while riding and can use 
a water bottle for keeping food/alcohol in.
