'Dale Posted December 8, 2017 Share I threw my saddle bag away in the 90's. Pocpac in my jersey or spares bag in my spare cage on short rides. Just as I was coaxing my friend away from a saddle bag he goes and buys a top tube bag. Unfriend. DieselnDust and Cippo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halfdoesyn Posted December 8, 2017 Share No. Professional cyclists use them.That's their job though. Doing 6 hr rides x 5 a week demands are different.Oh, so in all other areas we want to look and act like them, but not saddlebags? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patchelicious Posted December 8, 2017 Share Oh, so in all other areas we want to look and act like them, but not saddlebags?Do you really go around trying to act and look like a pro team? Shame. Did you buy one of those Tinkoff replica kits that CycleLab couldn't give away? Edited December 8, 2017 by Patchelicious DieselnDust 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ispeed_V Posted December 8, 2017 Share No No and No Rule #31//Spare tubes, multi-tools and repair kits should be stored in jersey pockets.If absolutely necessary, in a converted bidon in a cage on bike.Rule #29//No European Posterior Man-Satchels.Saddle bags have no place on a road bike, and are only acceptable on mountain bikes in extreme cases Edited December 8, 2017 by CMY44 Kalahari Vegmot, Long Wheel Base, DieselnDust and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patchelicious Posted December 8, 2017 Share Not me, but you obviously.Our legs are more shaven, our kits matches better than theirs, we will never buy something that is on special, we ride only in a perfect single file, drink only sparkling water, socks are longer and our team support cars look like a Zuma motorcade. Please dont do us the dishonour of saying we try to be like them, we are in fact substantially cooler. DieselnDust and Long Wheel Base 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But those rules were written ironically.... so does that not make saddle bags acceptable? Asking for a friend......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
