 Took me a while, but I figured out how to maximize this bag!May 03, 2010
By Cyclist John
Good construction, but the large (55 cubic inches, I think) is too small for me. One tube and my portable multi-tool pretty much fill it up. It would be possible to add keys, money, etc., but forget about a portable pump or even something like a powerbar. It's OK for the kids driving around the neighborhood, but no more.
I just ordered the Topeak large bag, which is about twice the size. That should make me happier. I hope the construction is acceptable. The Pedro's bag is virtually indestructible (made from recycled mountain bike tubes) and has a strong zipper.
UPDATE: after a few months with the large bag, I'm stripping down what I carry. I haven't fully figured it out yet, but think I can squeeze a tube, mini-pump, tire levers, a few allen wrenches, a few alcohol wipes, and repair gloves into the blowout bag. I definitely had some "luxuries" in the large bag that I don't need to carry.
UPDATE 2: I have two bikes, each with the large blowout bag under the saddle. Each bag contains a tube, mini-pump, mini-toolkit, rubber gloves, and a few first aid supplies. On the rear of the bag, there is a place to hang a blinky light, and I do so. I carry powerbars (and other consumables) in my jersey pockets. If I have no problem on my ride, I don't open the bag. Haven't opened it in months; that's the goal :)

pedros bagFeb 28, 2006
By Jason S. Ehlert
This bag can hold two tubes, a set of allen wrenches, 2 tire change levers, an air gauge and still have some room left. Nice product. I used it with the Xlab flatwing to reduce the storage of the CO2 bottles and inflator piece.

 Bad DesignMay 28, 2008
By B. Bilger
The strap that attaches this bag to your seat goes over the zipper track. (Look at the picture.) You can't open the zipper without undoing the strap. So this bag is too inconvenient for carrying car keys, which is why I wanted it.
it is a blowoutMar 13, 2012

After buying two of these I found why they were deeply discounted. Both bags were on bikes that are always stored indoors and neither bag was over stuffed and both came apart at the seams. Great idea to recycle but both ended up where they belonged in the trash. Don't waste your money.
Good bag, doesn't take heat/age wellSep 15, 2011
By Brock Tice
I had one of these bags for six years. This spring when I took the bike out of the shed (had been hanging upside-down all winter and part of the hot spring), the back end of the bag had disintegrated and everything fell out. I'm not sure if it was just old, or it was because I left it in the hot shed for a few summers. It's made out of inner tube rubber, and like inner tubes I guess it didn't take the heat well. That said, it lasted six years, so I certainly got my money's worth.
