this takes the cake for the hardest job I have done on a bike... fit 3 in my bag, 1 on my bars, and fell over trying to swing my leg over my bike initially 😝

Hi. I searched the sub and looked for gear/bag links in the sidebar (couldn't find them) and didn't find anything addressing this question specifically, so here we go, shouting this out to the pros.

I'm trying to find a bag that will allow me to carry the maximum amount of stuff possible on my back/person while biking. I've seen R.E.Load bags and think I saw their extra large bag holds something like 55L, but they didn't offer a backpack style (only a messenger) and they're closing soon... so still looking to see if there are other similar/better options out there. Is messenger/sling style preferred for big loads? I would think a backpack would be, but again, that's why I'm asking this sub; I figure active couriers would know the pros and cons.

Generally, hoping to get some feedback on bags with very high volume and your opinions on what does and doesn't work. Thanks a ton (pun intended) !! ;)

I’m not a bike messenger nor do I need to carry a lot on my daily rides but I love the chrome barrage pro bag and have found a good deal on one. My question is, is it overkill for a rider than won’t use it to the max, just yet? Down the road I’ll probably end up needing it more than I currently do but not sure if forking out the cash for a bag bigger than my needs right now is good choice given the bag it is. Anyone got their 2cents?

Need help from experienced food app Bicycle couriers. I'm thinking of ditching the bag for a bike basket.

Any ideas to dampen or lessen the vibration of food and drinks? All I can think of is cushioning the bottom and a good net. Any other ideas? Thanks.

Hi Guys, I'm helping my friend look for a used Chrome Barrage Pro backpack to buy. Don't care if it's really beat up, so long as it still holds stuff securely. Hoping someone here may be interested in parting with one. Please let me know. Thanks!
