Great idea, and I do let everyone interested ride my Sam Hillborne, but most people just don't understand. They think they can turn a Surly (just an example) into a Rivendell. There are exceptions but even they don't seem to bite. And for me, I'd love a SaddleSack, but it doesn't fit my lifestyle. I currently use an Ortleib Sport Packer pannier with its easy-on easy-off shoulder strap carrying system. I cannot see leaving a $250 bag with all its belongings on a locked bike. If anyone has a solution to this dilemma please let me know because I'd love a well used saddlesack with personal sewn on patches. I'd even consider Rivendell's panniers but they don't incorporate easy-on easy-off either. But make no mistake about it, I do promote Rivendell and support them as much as possible; great company!
