Small is Just enough for essentials. I fit 2-CO2 cartridges, inflator, multi tool, pressure gauge,tubeless tire plugger, 2 tire levers, mini jack knife, shock cord, and small plastic bag. I'm sure you could substitute a spare tube for the pressure gauge and one CO2, but I prefer to carry spare tubes in my jersey pocket.
Retention strap is simple, and keeps pack stable. Easy to attach and remove. Reflective side panels are a nice touch.
I purchased this seat bag to replace a Blackburn bag I've used for years. I shopped other brands but decided on buying a Blackburn bag again. I went with the large size, its a bit bigger than I need but still not too large. The water resistant material, practical inner design and great zipper all are nice features. This bag also secures tightly - no worries of it becoming loose. In use for a couple months, no complaints. Great looking bag as well.
Work great with my Revelate Fork bags. Included straps are plenty long, need to trim excess if desired. Handling on the bike is clearly less nimble, but no fault of the mounts and associated gear. Im guessing these will come in to play for multi-day trips, but they have worked we for me for basic bike-packing. Could easily hold a large Nalgene as is with the straps, or any right-sized waterproof stuff sack would be good. The Revelate fork mount bags do have loops to thread straps through so much more secure that way.
