Excellent pack, but not a light-weightMay 19, 2010
Given that I generally road bike for distance or MTB in the wilderness, and like to carry anything and everything, just in case I should flat or break a chain in the middle of nowhere, the Topeak Wedge w/ Fixer is a great pack. The provided tool kit includes an assortment of useful tools that are neatly nestled in the top zipper portion of the pack, while the bottom provides ample space for a spare tube, cell phone, bandages and snack food. In addition to the tool kit, a rain cover is provided for riding in wet or muddy conditions. I especially like the quick-lock removal feature of this pack. With the press of a button, the pack quickly and easily slides off the seatpost mount and into your hands. However, this is only accomplished if you first unfasten the velcro strap lashing the pack to your seatpost, otherwise you'll be tugging and wondering why the pack isn't coming off. This isn't a light-weight pack, so if you're counting the grams, this isn't the pack for you, but if weight comes second in priority to carrying lots of stuff, this pack will serve you well. I highly recommend this pack for all the above-reasons.
 Good Bag But May Not Fit All SaddlesNov 11, 2009
The attachment did not fit my saddle as the supports were too close. I had to jury rig something to make it fit. Strange as my saddle is made by Bowtrange which is a well known make.
 Broke in less than a monthOct 18, 2009
The concept behind this bag is a good one. I like the idea of being able to quickly remove the bag when I lock it up somewhere. But the plastic bracket that secures the bag to the underside of the saddle broke less than a month after I started using it. I'm going back to using a "low tech" bag that just uses a simple velcro strap to secure the bag so I don't have to worry about this happening again.
Works greatOct 09, 2009
Works good as a moderate sized pack for your bike when you don't need to bring too much stuff with you, just the essentials. It fits my wallet, keys, cell phone, and a cliff bar perfectly -- and that's with it un-expanded. Plenty of room for even more stuff (assuming it's the right width and length) if you expand it. The quick-clip is also a really nice feature, although I usually just detach my entire seat and take it with me for safety anyways. There's a secondary velcro strap as well which makes the quick clip not so quick if you use the strap. But solid product either way. The all-weather cover is also really nice but you have to detach the pack from the seat to put it on, which can be a bit of a pain if you are caught in the middle of a downpour. Mounting it on my bike seat was pretty easy, although it doesn't fit perfectly. This is bound to happen with any product though as nobody can design something to fit perfect with every model of bike and seat.
 Great product, but with some fitment issuesApr 11, 2009
Under seat packs are always convenient to have and this product works just fine. The medium is perfect for everyday riding. I bring my dog on occasional long rides and its enough to fit my keys, cell phone, collapsable water bowl, 3plastic bags and some treats with a little extra room left over. Unfortunately the pack does not fit well with my Rincon Giant mountain bike mainly because I have a rack on the back. I just make do without the underseat clip and just use the strap for the bike seat post.
Pros:
-Enough room for storage
-Not to obtrusive as the Large size
-very good quality
-zipper does not snag
-slot on back for reflector/light
Cons:
-not too compatible if you have a rack on the bike
