I love this handlebar bag. I purchased my bag six years ago. For 4 years it was on my daily commuter bike and sat outside in the sun and rain. The color has faded some from the sun, but everything about the bag is still in perfect condition. It is hand for carrying extra clothing, my phone and wallet. The lock closure is super easy to access even at quick stops with gloves on. Although not it's primary function, I have carried a 4-pack of 16oz beers in this bag!
Highly recommended!
