I bought this because it seemed like a good front bag that would adequately fit my laptop, clothing and lunch for my commute to the office. It's great. I use it for small grocery store trips and family picnics also.

After running a carradice barley saddlebag for almost 15 years I really was needing a bit of more space for longer rides. I coveted the Burgandy for so long, but once Ronny let me know there was going to be a Burgundy Large Fab's chest I knew it was going to be my dream bag.
Lo and behold, dream she is. Connected it up to my old quick release and a cross body strap and this is truly the perfect bicycle bag that I also am fine being seen in public with. Keeps my things dry on wet days, carries a camera in the side pocket, and everything from the multiple magnetic snaps to the movable clips are so well considered. I look forward to a new 15 years of this bag.

So well designed, so well built and so very stylish. And on top of that it's made right here in New England. Thanks Ron!

This is a phenomenal bag. I ended up pairing it with a rockgeist bar jam mount thingy with a longer pole to free up hand space on my ALT bar, and the Shovel Rod Steward to really make this chest pop. It’s sturdier than Ron’s outhouse. I love that it works so well in basket mode, and that I can use the cover flap extender to secure whatever quality sidewalk scores I find on the ride home. Thanks for making nice stuff!

As they say, the CHEST is the BEST. Seriously though, quite good. The main reason I went with the small/large combo front and rear is because I can own ONE pair of bags that allows me to do an overnight on all FOUR of my bicycles. Had a few different setups for each bike and this helped me simplify the amount of **** I own. :) Plus the techy x__ fabric makes these quite lightweight for the amount of volume they offer.

I am very pleased with my new bag. It’s the right color, which is personal to me, but for others just know the bag is great! The fabric is durable and the craftsmanship is superb. One big note is the functionality of the bag. Very well thought out in every way, from the buckles and their location, the dual use as a “bucket” or waterproof compartment, to the magnetic latches. I highly recommend this!

I’ve been using the small size, and this time I got the large one. It seems perfect for bike camping and moving between fishing spots, and I really like it. Thank you for making such an amazing bike bag.

Hands down the best bags around! Truly quality made and worth every penny! I have had enough with cheap bags that tear out from a little bit of rough riding. And one can’t miss the aesthetic superiority that a Ron’s bike bag brings to the table, I mean come on! Also the kindest, most gentle and loving customer service a human could ever hope to encounter in 2025, thank you so much for your service and products all <3
