that should double your range
not sure if it is something I would like to consider as part of my everyday outfit though, it seems a bit off a hassle

how does the bike handle with all that extra weight on top ?

A quick review on it.

fixing : about an hour
ease of fixing : 8 (from scale of 1 to 10)
Capacity: 5.5L (about 90km more)
handling: bike still feels nimble, did not felt any instability on the rear.
price: expensive (but for E or SR model, it leave me very little choice or in fact none other than this or carrying extra container for long trip. really sick and tired of that). It did not hinder my backpack or mounting of my Great Basin saddlebag.
so far I am happy with it, it works and no longer need to carry spare fuel nor worry about it.
