  How strong is the magnet?

  Will these ever fall off a tank?

    My Mum has a tank bag a bit like this (although I am not sure about the brand). It wouldn't fall off unless pulled quite strongly and the magnets are lifted up on one edge.

    I believe it would be infeasible for it to actually "fall off", as it will have a few magnets around different parts of the tank.

    That is, unless it is a horribly designed bag.

    Magnets are very strong - sold quite a few of these Australia wide and never had a complaint about being weak. If you seat it properly and treat the bag right it won't fall off your bag. Store your gear sensibly so the heavy stuff is on the bottom and light stuff on top.

  Great concept, if only there were a way of ensuring that it couldn't be stolen from the bike while parked

  Very tempting! Any reason why I should choose this over my regular backpack?

  Sold been looking for something like this.
  Just wanted to check would this work ok on any size bike?

    Yeah any size bike with a metallic tank is fine - I had one of these on my first bike ages ago which was a CBR 125 (they are tiny!) and now happily use one on my KLR 650.

    I've had customers use them on larger touring bikes also. Really is a simple universal system.

  how much stuff does it fit?
  e.g. would it fit wallet, phone and a pair of shoes?

  • 

    Store RepThird_Gear @ Third Gear on 03/05/2013 - 16:21

    Yeah all that stuff easily. Holds a fair bit and it is expandable.

  Hi - would it fit and stick to a pannier rack on the back of a push bike? Thanks

    Nope.
