Peter, Only you can decide whether it is too small for your intended purpose. I have a Barley, a Lowsaddle Longflap, and a Nelson LF, and they all have different uses. The Barley is good for a day trip to bring extra clothing, some food, books, etc. Not really for carrying groceries or such. But, you will likely not need a rack or other support for it. It is small enough that if you ride a bike bigger than 52 or so, it probably won't rub the tire, and because of its size, you will probably not load it too heavily.
I ride ~54 bikes, and I use a SQR for my LSLF.
