    Got the US30.
    Tank converter kit too.
    Brilliant. I didn’t want solid luggage. I like the idea of removing luggage even if getting fuel. The Kreiga bags come with shoulder straps so you can carry it when off the bike. Handy

    On the security of the bags there's a number of options. A Packsafe mesh can be padlocked over the bags and to the bike which should stop opportunist theft. The other thing is that there are numerous lightweight cable locks that could be threaded through the molly loops and secured to the chassis. With a bike like yours you can't really benefit from more secure luggage without home made rack mounts and these will detract form the lovely lines of the bike.

      Hi mate, some good options there. I just ended up taking mine off for anything longer than a 10 minute stop :) I would go with rack mounts for longer journeys or ones where the bike would be left with bits on. Thanks for commenting

    Great overview of the Kriega. My son and I just did a 5 day ride in west Texas in the US and we each used a Kriega 30 and worked great. I just posted our Kriega packing video for the trip and going to link your video in the description and recommend for anyone looking for a more detailed review. Great job!

    Very useful! As mentioned in other comments, the loading of the bags was extremely helpful!
    Just bought a US10 for a tailbag and now thinking of getting a 20 and another 10 to give me a good weekend trip capability.
    I had to fuss around a bit with the initial strap placement but now that it's done, the rest is easy.
    If I had a wish it would be for KRIEGA to make a proper tankbag.
    The 10 and 20 can be used with the tank attachment but it's a clunky setup and some features could be improved (more easy access pockets, tanklock quick-release, etc).
    Well done. Keep the content coming!

    Very good video. It's very helpful to see what can be packed into a US20 and US30 bag because i am thinking of buying one or the other in addition to two OS 18's on to my Tenere 700. Packing even the lightest, softest shoes always takes up such a lot of space and is always something I struggle with. Well done. Thank you.

  • @garmit61
    @garmit61 6 років тому +3

    You could always use a bicycle cable lock to secure the bag to the bike by passing it through loops on the bag. It’s not going to deter someone if they are determined and equipped to steal the bag, but it will stop an opportunist thief from unclipping the bag and stealing your gear.

    After quite a few years I admit, my US30 finally failed waterproofing this week, which absolutely sucks. I think I bought them in 2017, that means that it's done thousands of miles in all conditions and taken this long to have an issue somewhere, but once it's gone - it's gone

    • @CJMPH
      @CJMPH  4 роки тому

      I’m not sure how safe the laptop would be with bike locks as you’ll want to tighten the bag to bike quite a lot and it could potentially crack the screen. I’m pretty sure that would all fit in the US 20 though. Depending on the laptop case thickness.... the US20 might not be wide enough... sorry I can be of more help :( thanks for commenting though 👍

  • @SportSoulLife
    @SportSoulLife 6 років тому +1

    Im a bit sceptical to how stable the bags are on the bike. Say if i get the 30 and two 20s one on each side, will they sit firmly attacked to the bike or will they move about a lot in corners or on the highway?
    I dont own a car and work on ships, so i would carry about 2 weeks worth of clothes, toiletries, a laptop etc.

    • @CJMPH
      @CJMPH  6 років тому

      I couldn't say for certain but I don't think you would have problem if you pull the straps really tight. My mate used his 30 with a 10 on the side and that wasn't a problem, literally didn't move at all. You could always try a US 20 on top of a US 30 and then get their R35 backpack and attach a US10 to that. Going to cost a lot of money but could give you flexibility if that's what you need.

    • @SportSoulLife
      @SportSoulLife 6 років тому

      CJ Did some rethinking. Might go with the SW-Motech Blaze panniers (expensive as hell, but look really good on the bike) along with something like a US 20 and two US 10 bags. Got really interested in the backpack too, specifically the watertight one (ofcause).
      Thats already well over 100 liters of capacity, I would think that would be more than enough :)
      Its all long term plans really, nothing set in stone. At the moment Im debating wether to upgrade my suspension (classic Yamaha; sprung for a japanese underweight kid) or get proper luggage
      Thank you for your reply, will definitely choose Kriega of some kind :)

    I currently have a Nelson Rig 22L sports tail bag and find it doesn't hold enough for me. I don't carry too much that often, but I want something where I can store my Dainese leather sports jacket, rain gear (gortex pants/ hardshell jacket), spare gloves, a water bottle, and occasionally a mid layer (usually a compressible down jacket or fleece jumper), and other small odds and ends. I can get most of that in my nelson rig minus the leather jacket because its just so bulky and the nelson rigg doesn't expand well with with its semi-hard shell. Do you you think I could get all that in the US20 as they look fairly roomy or do you think I'd need the US30?
    I dont do crazy multi day treks just full day rides/commutes. I was set on getting the 30 initially but then realised what about when Im not carry much gear and just a few items and the bag doesn't take a good shape and stays flat/lose, seems like it could be problematic but Its hard to tell. Advice please :D

    • @CJMPH
      @CJMPH  6 років тому

      I would have said those items (except the leather sports jacket) should be fine to fit in but the fact that your 22L bag didnt fit them in, I would say this 20L is going to struggle even more. I guess I would say, play it safe and go for the 30L if you can afford it because you can just roll the end over more if you have excess space. Thanks for commenting

    • @CJMPH
      @CJMPH  5 років тому +2

      I used a 20 and 10 for a weekend trip and had space left over. For a week trip I would recommend going for the 30 as you can always fill the space and trainers will fit much better in it. A 20 with two 10's will probably be OK too but I'd say its better to have more space and not need it than the other way round :)
