Never endingly useful - but poor zip
I'd wanted a bar bag for my gravel bike. One that was orange to match my bar tape! And waterproof so I could keep stuff dry - and wash down after muddy rides. This fabric fits the bill perfectly. I just wish the zip was easier to use; the big teeth catch, so you need two hands to open the bag - no use when you're riding along. Not that easy when the bag is full either.

slightly less then the perfection
It might be my Cannondale Topstone (CF3) and this bag that are not the best of friends, but it hangs kinda strange. Also during, in fairness, a looooong wet ride, some water came into both compartments. Still a nice bag, but slightly less then the perfection I've come to love from Rapha

Like the variety of colorway for this bag
However some improvement can be made to the design.
1-a tie on the side that can turn the bag to a frame bag
2-the shoulder straps shall be able to separated from the bag for easier storage
3-a description of bag dimensions on the website so rider may measure whether the bag will fit the bike (for example it doesn't fit my Canyon Ultimate XXS)

Good and useful, but not excellent
A good-looking bag and very useful for a small number of items (e.g. phone, purse, energy bars, lights) - useful for people like me who can't reach back into their jersey pockets, or don't want to stuff lots of things in them. And maybe a more secure way of carrying stuff when you're not on your bike. The shoulder strap tucks in the back and is fixed to the bag which is an improvement on the previous version of the bar bag, plus the handlebar/stem fixings are a bit more flexible. However, the zip doesn't run very smoothly on the corners, and in this respect the previous bar bag was better.

Thin Materials / Cheap Zipper
Positives:
Overall a well designed product, that let’s you easily mount and dismount your bag from your handlebar. A nice locking mechanism on the carry strap, for when walking.
Negatives:
The choice of materials and quality does not live up to its price. It consists of a thin and cheap feeling polyester. The zippers are not smooth at all, more haltingly than everything else.
The choices makes the product light in weight, but I do not believe that this should be the goal here - not carrying a bar bag at all should be the riders choice, if weight one the bike was to be a problem.

Useful accessory for long rides
Good size, solid when attached, great extra space for long rides. Only minor issue is you cant remove the shoulder strap so its always attached even if you don't plan on ever using it.

Well-structured
Good support through the base, doesn't collapse with any weight in it like many other bar bags. One the one hand, I appreciate the well-covered zippers because they do an excellent job keeping out rain. On the other hand, they absolutely do make it more difficult to zip and unzip the bag, especially with gloves. If you're a frequent bag-fiddler, maybe something to keep in mind.

Great camera bag
Zip cover is the only thing I don't like! While the material covering the zip helps with waterproofing, it is quite inflexible and a pain to try and fold back to zip the bag open. As it's a flexible bag and doesn't hold it's form completely this is a little annoying. However! I love it anyway and really like how you can wear it off bike with the strap over the shoulder. I often use it as a camera bag. Probably more so than on my bike.

Adequate design, cool colour, spacious interior
Great looking bag, got mine in camo-green, spacious - fits everything I need for a bike ride, with good quality zippers. Front zippered pocket not big enough for a iPhone 15 but smaller phones work well, along with keys. The shoulder straps very useful, good length, allowing you to carry it across your chest while cycling, or indeed hips. The velcro straps which allow you to attach the bag to the handlebars leave a lot to be desired - they aren't strong enough to hold the bag firm when its full-ish, prompting the bag to flop down, with frequent occurrences of the velcro straps coming loose and the bag falling off whilst biking all-together. Bucked straps would have been ideal, or indeed a fastening strap, but velcro doesn't work.

Nice bar bag
Great little bar bag with a waist strap so it can be carried off the bike. Good storage (jacket, tools and snacks) with some internal bands to help organise stuff, all accessible whilst riding. The waist strap tucks out of the way when it’s on the bike. I have a light green version of this bag and if you ride off-road the bag gets splattered and can stain… maybe dark colours would be a more practical choice?

Sized for kids not real people
Not all that happy. The body strap is too short for me to wear "cross body" and it doesn't really work as a bum-bag. Put it around your neck and it's sort of more like the bag you would see on a St Bernard. Put it cross body and you can just about wedge one boob over the bag. Every time I pick it up and I reminded that I am not one the chosen ones to be served by the Rapha brand. I do like how it sits on the handlebars though, and it seems to keep the water out.

Perfect transition for bike to exploring on foot
My friends and I each bought one for our recent bike trip in Europe (4 of us in 4 different colors), and it was the perfect size for minimalist travel, and transitioning from bike travel to walking around the town. We each loved our own unique color, and couldn’t have been happier with this purchase.
From a technical perspective, I’d read about the zipper being difficult to use while on the bike, and I will confirm that this is true, however, once I worked the fabric around the zipper a little bit, it was slightly easier to use.

Nice colors, functional, trendy
Nice looking and functional handlebar bag. Well thought out Velcro straps that allow for adjustment during the riding. The interior slots and additional external mini pocket are kind of useless because of their small size. The colors that the come in are really nice. The zippers are hard to operate (they are very stiff) and that’s my only big issue with this bag.

Schade kein Top Produkt, zu teuer
Die alte oder das neue Modell kaufen? Leider kenne ich jetzt nur das neue Modell. Der Zipp ist wirklich eine Katastrophe zum öffnen und schließen. Der Klettverschluss ist sehr lapprrieg, Da wäre das alte Modell klar besser. Die Größe ist wieder viel besser. Ob die Tasche jetzt wirklich wasserdicht ist, ist für mich zweitrangig. Ich habe die Tasche auch schon am Körper getragen und nur mit den Gurt befestigt. In einem Geschäft zu diesem Preis hätte ich sie mir nicht gekauft. Der Zipp ist wirklich nicht gelungen

Poor Zipper Design
Many aspects of this bag were very appealing such as the water resistant material and stylish design. However, the zipper was made of unsupported plastic and was very difficult to zip closed when anything was in the bag. I tried it many times because I liked the bag otherwise and wanted to keep it but the bad zipper was a deal-breaker.

Poor zip and other flaws
This bag shows promise but could have been so much better. The biggest problem is the chunky, low-quality zip that’s hard to do up properly, especially to get the zipper around the last corner. You want a handlebar bag to be convenient but if it’s a struggle to close, almost all the convenience is lost.
I also think the textured material isn’t a great choice. Unfortunately an oily puddle created an impossible stain on this bag’s very first outing. If the material were smooth it probably could be cleaned off, but basically it’s ruined for use anywhere off the bike
Which leads me to the last thing - there’s a kind-of-pointless strap that I initially thought I could use so that the bag could double in some kind of off-the-bike capacity. On the bike, this strap has to be tucked away kind of inside the back of the bag, which isn’t terribly easy to do and it’s even more awkward to get it back out again. So I never actually used it off the bike, and with the aforementioned stain I’m not rushing to do so, as it looks so bad.
This is all a bit of a shame because the shape and size is pretty good, and it was reasonably stable on the bike. A few better choices in construction could make this a nice little bag but as it is, I can’t recommend it

Great little bar bag!
Got this bag and like others thought the zip was a bit awkward.
However, the age old trick of running a pencil across the zipper has made the bits around the corners a lot easier.
Also, simply flipping up the rain cover makes it a doddle to undo.
I use it under a Garmin Mount so access on the fly isn’t a priority anyway.
The bag itself is superbly made.
I prefer the lack of inner pockets as I can stuff more in.
And it holds a lot for a small bag!

Really useful little bag
I really like this little bar bag: it's a perfect size for ride essentials plus a lightweight shell. It attaches to the bars easily, and although I haven't used it as a hip pack I think this is a useful feature for long rides where you might want to lock your bike and take wallet/phone/jacket elsewhere.

bought on sale, would be angry at full price
Ok bag, tough to get a tight fit. Rubs paint off headtube or stem, depending on where you secure it. Main zipper always hangs up. I feel Rapha has really dropped the ball in quality lately. I've possibly bought my last Rapha product now. I bought on sale, so I'll keep using it.

Great bag!
Super happy with this handlebar bag! The size is perfect, it is possible to put (for example) a dry shirt in, so you can get on your bike dry again after a break. It is light and easy to get off the bike. Waterproof and it looks realy nice.

Multi purpose use bar bag
Waist tie needs 3rd party straps to secure it when not being used - tends to fall and get caught in front wheel. Not ideal. Would be better if strap were detachable for when not in use. Overall bar bag does what it's intended for.

Nice bag but not perfect
Good size, and I like the secure way the velcro straps attach to handlebar. 2 gripes: the shoulder strap is handy but difficult to keep neatly contained, and the zipper flap, while protecting against rain, is slightly unwieldy.

Looks great but fails on user experience
I had the previous incarnation and saw someone using this one. It had a bigger capacity and the rose colour looked great. However, functionally its sadly a no from me. Its way too 'soft' meaning it sags, looks strange and the back panel just warped around my headtube and cables. The straps system isn't great and it would be better if they were just 2 way velcro or removable so you can add your own Voile straps. Relegating this to a storage bag for my electronics etc when travelling.

Ideal bag for a full day ride
This bag is of an ideal size to carry food, a rain jacket, a mini pump , etc for a long day ride while being light. It is also very easy to access (even when riding) and waterproof.

Schön & hochwertig mit praktischen Einbußen
Optisch eine sehr schöne, geräumige und hochwertige Lenkertasche. Das Hauptfach lässt sich jedoch bei voll gepackter Tasche nicht optimal öffnen, da der Reisverschluss unter dem Stoff liegt und dieser ziemlich fest ist. Theoretisch ist die Tasche auch als Bauch-/Schultertasche zu verwenden, allerdings kippt sie ziemlich nach vorne, da der Gurt mittig festgenäht ist und nicht oben an der Tasche. Praktischer wäre m.E. auch, wenn sich der Gurt lösen ließe; Dieser ist aber festgenäht.
