RANS Aero bag

The Aero seat bag has plastic stiffeners and does not sag when empty. I use
one on a Screamer tandem to hold my hydration supply and spare clothing, the
one on the stoker's seat carries the tools and tubes and another hydration
bladder.

Does the RANS Aero bag have internal pockets/dividers? Looking for a
seat-mounted bag for my Stratus, and prefer something that wouldn't
rattle/flop if not fully packed/loaded.

no dividers or pockets in rans bag, except for water bladder,which
actually takes away space inside the bag.
the rans bag works well, doesnt sag, is not thatmheavy and does not
ontefere with rans rak on vrex.
my zipper broke after about year though, and warranty is only 30
days..

I just went over to SEARS and bought three back-pack bags intended for
school kids. They are the right size for my STRATUS, come in different
colors and styles, are very well made, and were on sale for $9.99! Try to
find a nice bag at a LBS for $9.99....

yes but they wont work as well or fit as well as well made bike bags,
the rans bag, slides over the seat back, back pack straps interfere
with the seat back, a short ride are OK, .
also some of those backpacks would also drag on the wheel,
you could also rig a potato sack to your seat back too, to save more
money

Jack, We are buying two Rans bikes (either two V-Rexs or a V-Rex and a
V2) WE have BikeE ATs and use backpacks like those you bought from
Sears. On the current Rans seats there are no exposed seat frames. How
do you attach the backpacks securely to the Rans seat?

You know, when are they going to come out with airbags for bikes?

Dave avoids occult fraternities, despite maintaining his interest in life and
conversation, because they have only harmed or hindered that which was precious
to him. Thank you.

We are drifting off-topic a bit, but since u ask--- Airbags for bents
would look like wide shorts and swimmys... I've hit pavement with my
Rocket, and have noticed that others have had similar experiences--
hitting loose gravel or water while cornering enthusiastically.
Ground contact is executed instantly, and with subtle finesse, with
the elbow and hind quarter. Thusly, wide shorts and elbonic air
bags-- which look like swimmys worn at joint level-- would be
required..

Any royalties from these suggestions should be sent to the Benevolent
Society For The Prevention Of Road Strawberries Which You Can't
Inspect Without A Mirror, Research Dept.

That has to be the most eloquent description of a wreck that I've ever read

Ken,

Shorten the straps about as far as they will go and use the left-over strap
tails to tie together around the seat stays. Works great! (Unless you have
the seat leaned WAAY-BACK like my son does on his V2, then the bag might rub
the tire unless you use a rear rack.) I use these packs on my Tailwind and
Stratus with no problem.

Ken,

Shorten the shoulder straps about as far as they will go
(Maybe I should have mentioned) and just hang the pack over the seat back
by the shoulder straps
