It's durable waterproof and looks good. It's the right size for 90% of my loads. and is small enough not to get in the way when I'm not carrying much.<BR/><BR/>I hope that helps.Vikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07214932277372519931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34647801.post-26458582024150066592008-06-19T07:13:00.000-06:002008-06-19T07:13:00.000-06:00I stumbled across your blog while looking for pics...I stumbled across your blog while looking for pics of a bike. I've been considering purchasing an Ortlieb Velocity, but was unsure if it was the right size/price/fit for me. Do you ride with your bag a lot? Does it compare well to other bags you've rode with? Could you describe how much you could fit (like an example...I don't know..maybe groceries?)?
