By Michael Michael Motorcycle from Nashville, TN on 09/23/2009 Pros: Easy To Access Items, Easy To Carry, High Quality Describe Yourself: Career, Practical Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I have been using this bag for the past couple weeks and love it. I bought it for the sole purpose of carrying a netbook to and from work on my motorcycle. I don't yet have the netbook but was impressed that my older 15" laptop actually fit in the main compartment, although it did crowd the pockets somewhat. Without the laptop it will hold a pair of shoes and more. Mine is black but you can still see the reflections and it is nice to have a bag that rests on the back seat of the motorcycle instead of on my back like a backpack. Wearing a backpack was very uncomfortable in the heat, especially considering the motorcycle gear. I did get the exterior a little wet in the rain and it was no problem, but the main compartment is not at all sealed from the elements (large holes on either side of the main flap ) so you will want to wrap your electronics that are not in the waterproof pockets. I'm expecting to toss the netbook in a big zip-loc bag. I predict the Timbuk2 will function well even in a monsoon so long as you take this limitation into consideration.
By stlll searchin' for a bag from bay area, ca on 08/24/2009 Pros: Easy To Access Items, Easy To Carry, High Quality Describe Yourself: Comfort-Oriented, Modern, Stylish Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: center reflective panel so cool i really wanted to keep this, however I am 5'3 and even the small messenger just doesn't fall well on my frame. great straps, seems very well made, albeit I would expect a top handle and water bottle pockets or a small outside pocket for what they charge at full price. i tried the all black which is conservative by day but maybe looks a bit too plain except when lit at night. recommended if you can use a small messenger bag. my 13'' macbook fit but would need full sleeve to be really protected.
By Zen Master from Pluto on 07/19/2009 Pros: Easy To Carry, Good Capacity, High Quality Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Bag made in Vietnam. Red ribbon w/clip is sewn into pocket to make finding keys easier. In this bag it was sewn into the very small outer pocket maybe by mistake. If you have only one or two keys, no problem. On Timbuk2 bags made in the USA the ribbon is sewn into an inside pocket.
