Thanks for the link DoctorRad....I just grabbed three of these. They are tiny but will work nicely for specific items. I also picked up two chalk bags to use as a fakey set of mountain feedbags for $6.95 a piece.

Well made and will function as I need them to for a great price.

They have a few other things on clearance too. I picked up a 2.5 liter "bike bag" that can supposedly go on the handlebars or saddle...not sure exactly how it attaches or how stable it will be as a small saddlebag for bikepacking, but it was under 10 bucks with shipping...I'll report on it once I get it

I have one of these. It's a decent general bag and holds on alright. I got creative and threw it in my triangle as a toolbag on my failed tour of the Erie Canal in December.

(there's a high quality version on there if you click through and can see it better).

I use it for tools, snacks, and a sketchbook now on day rides, but that might change since I have some nice new bags coming.

I got my bags this week. they are nice quality with long velcro straps that will size to even the largest tubes. I picked up some chalk bags also and two velcro pump straps. All good quality stuff.

It does have a strap to attach it to the stem/seatpost, right? Seems like it should work decently as long as it's got that and you don't put too much weight in.

Nope, just squeezed it in there and it didn't flutter. I was considering sewing on a side strap, but whatever, I don't think I'd use it like that again, most likely throw it on top of a Revelate Design Handlebar Roll...or something similar...

Mine just got here. Pretty good size bag - just about what I needed. It seems really odd that they didn't include a third strap, though. Still, I think with a bit of sewing I could right something up. I think just a simple velcro strip would be fine - enough to wrap it around the rails to hold to the saddle in a more stable way. I don't plan on putting anything too heavy in there and I bet that would work fine.
