For cyclists, extra storage space on a bike is a luxury, so even if there's a mounted basket, chances are they'll appreciate Ian Mahaffy's Victoria Saddle Bag.
Mahaffy's creation came about when he saw how much trouble females had carrying a purse while riding a bike at the same time, so he created the Victoria Saddle Bag, a seat cover that also has a miniature pouch that folds outward in a 90 degree angle so that it easily goes over the seat. Once removed, ladies can carry it around like a purse or satchel thanks to the additional handle integrated into the design.
The Victoria Saddle Bag is a clever design that will definitely be a hit among cyclists. The pouch may be small, but it offers additional space that most cyclists wished they had.
