TWIST Essential Bag

Pros:
- Looks ridiculously good
- Absurdly satisfying attaching mechanism. That click!
-Great quality and design. This bag really does look cool.

Cons:
- The medium size (smaller size available) is big. It hardly fits my Epic WC frame. Do measure your bottle cage space beforehand.
- It has a nifty little strap that you can use if you want to hang the bag around your body. This strap is not detachable.

The bag does not hold it's shape well. Starts to flair out and there is nothing to stop it. If it had some straps at the top to keep it slim that would help. Used it a couple times now it's just a $100 paper weight...

Would love to see a smaller version to pair with universal mount on the seat post in lieu of a seat pack. I would look really great if it was small enough to be sized for tube, CO2, and tire lever only. Just an idea :)

I love the Fidlock mechanisms and have two bottle holders that work flawlessly. Regarding this bag, I have no problems with the bag itself and it is well designed, but the way the Fidlock mounts are oriented, it doesn't fit anywhere on my bike (large Lauf Seigla). I tried to fit it as a top tube bag in both possible orientations, but that's a no-go because of how the mounting bracket is oriented. It also doesn't fit well in either of my bike cage slots...so unfortunately, it won't have a home on my bike. I'd love to see Fidlock move the mounting bracket on the bag itself, because it could be a killer top-tube bag. Being able to easily take the bag off the top tube (with valuables inside) would put this bag above all the other screw-mounted top tube bags on the market.

This bag is perfect for long bike rides. Nice looking, cleaver design, secure while riding, holds all my nutrition, and I like the fact that you can easily remove it from the bike and carry it with you (strap included). Nice job 👍🏻!
