Nice looking fender bag! Unfortunately, just a little too small for me.

I understand. Consider a Regular (8x5x3) which will fit great, with about 1" hanging over the taillight.

If these redesigns succeed I will be working on a fanny pack next spring.
If they fail I'll be out of business.

It looks good.
The zipper is what failed on two of my OEM bags. I ended up using a small bungee cord across the top.
$25 is a fair price.

.
It's a YKK zipper, they are as good as you can get. I've been using them since I started the business and I can count the number of failures on 1 finger.
And the internal compression strap keeps stuff from bouncing around and putting pressure on the zipper.

I took your advice and ordered the regular bag.
