SciCon Saddlebag

4

Phantom 230 minimalist clipon bag works as advertised. Only the bare essentials fit but it keeps the bag from marring carbon seatpost which most hook and loop types can do over time. Quite satisfied with the product but will buy a larger clip on bag for longer more remote type rides.

Ergonomically Designed

5

Nicely designed. Enough space to carry a 700c spare tube, levers and some patches including glue. Though it comes with built in tire levers, I have yet to try if it is reliable. Easy on/off with no tools required

Zipper

2

This is quite a neat product fits easily and is removed easily, however the fabric is quite stiff and you have to spend a bit of time making sure everything fits (innertube) OK before zipping it up. This is a small bag. Unfortunately, the zipper is not up for the job and I have managed to 'derail' it on a couple of occasions albeit I have also managed to get it back on track so it's stiff carries everything I need safely. The tyre levers are neatly stored within the product (fingers crossed I haven't used them as yet). They seem a little wide but I'm sure they'd do the job OK. On the whole quite disappointed due to the zipper albeit it might be I'm just a little bit to rough with the bag?

Good for old iPhone

5

Just needed something to take on TT bike to hold a phone. This fits the old iPhone (this is an iPhone 4) but it is tight.

Very compact

5

Excellent for when just the minimum is required, fits a spare tube plus small multi tool, maybe a little cash. Ideal for short rides

Compact Saddle Bag

4

A great little bag, that has been well thought out in terms of design aesthetics and functionality. The clip system is very simple but clever, as well as the integrated tyre levers. These are a real space saver considering the small capacity for the bag - which is my only gripe so far. I was able fit only one inner tube, a compact patch kit and multi tool plus a small back up tail light. Ideally it should be made slightly larger to fit at least two inner tubes and a patch kit. Apart from that it is an awesome piece of saddle bag! If you want to load more items inside, I would suggest considering the next size up.

Nice Design

5

I'm pleased with the size, design and quality of the bag. Big enough for tube and multi tool with room to spare. Like the quick release attachment to the saddle. Highly recommended

Perfect Slim Fit

5

When it comes to essential minimal saddle bags, where you just want to store tools and tubes, there is pretty much nothing available in US. Fortunately Scicon gear was available from ProBikeKit.com in UK and it took less than a week to deliver it to California. This bag fits perfectly my road bike saddle. The lock system is easy to use and looks sturdy. Repair tools attach to the base, so the bag contains only the tube.

Scicon do it again

5

I saw this bag after buying a smaller one by Scicon a few months earlier. I loved the smaller bag i previously owned but wanted something a bit bigger and once I read it was a favourite amongst the peloton, I was hooked. Lovely carbon finish and easy to access. Fits an inner tube and comes with tyre levers. Perfect.

Compact and solid

5

Very well designed. Tyre levers are integrated into the shell. It's small, but can hold a tube, CO2 cartridge, small tool, and mini CO2 inflator. Mount releases with a half turn. Quick and easy to move the bag from one bike to another.
