Useful

A good bag but could be I proved with better adjustable straps. I use it only with my leather and bike jeans to hold my wallet, phone & house keys. A good size for that but that leg strap really is too loose.

It works

It works, bit fiddly at first but then most things are. Takes phone, wallet and small change. For me it works

A very useful bag- needs tighter leg adjustment

29 July 2024 by Kevin M

This is about the right size for me, holding my wallet and Samsung smart phone. I was a little put off when I first recieved it, as the adjustment on the leg isn't sufficient, meaning it feels insecure. I have temporarily overcome this but I intend to sow more velcro on it. I don't have thin legs either! With the waist strap secured it is secure and I am getting used to it. The zips seem good quality.

Great day accessory

23 July 2024 by Kevin R

Well made, fits well, looks great.
Nearly perfect for carrying keys, cards, some cash and a phone with easy access, 1.5 litres and would have been perfect, it's just not quite big enough to hold a bottle of water or can of drink with the other essentials

Great addition to my luggage setup

12 May 2024 by Anonymous

I wanted a convenient pocket for coins, passport and credit cards on a recent trip to France. I read the reviews on sportsbikeshop and went for this product due to size etc. I took the precaution of placing my passport in a plastic bag as I was worried about the zips letting in water etc, however fear not the heavens opened on my 280km ride over and all items were dry (I will probably still use a plastic bay however lol. Good bit of kit overall.

Good piece of kit

11 May 2024 by Martyn

Perfect little leg bag!

I bought this to carry my disc lock, wallet and house keys, as I was fed up of having to take off my backpack whenever I'd go into a shop.

Great size and adjustability, plenty of internal pockets, only used it in light showers so far and everything was dry as a bone.

Top service from SBS as always! Highly recommend.

Decent quality

15 April 2024 by Chris E

Hard to complain. Seems good quality as you'd expect. My leg's a bit thin so I might shorten strap somehow. It's slightly smaller than I'd prefer but didn't want a 3 litre one. Phone, earplugs, keys and thin wallet - that's about it. However, I'm happy with purchase and happy to recommend.

Great addition

09 February 2024 by Stuart R

Great addition in my riding kit, would have given 5 stars if the leg strap had more range of adjustment as my wife finds it loose on her thigh (smaller than me). Also drop length is slightly low and range of adjustment is also limited, it sits too far down but useable. Am happy.

Perfect for essentials

21 September 2023 by Simeon Y

Usual Oxford quality. Use this on hot days when I'm lacking pockets on my leathers. Perfect for phone and cards. To give an idea on sizing, just fits my Samsung S8+. I'm 6ft, 90kgs, chunky thighs, leg straps are in the middle of adjustment with leathers on. Overall, just the job

Great Little Bag

Bought for carrying a puncture repair kit, visor wipes & spare ear plugs as both my bikes have no under seat storage.
Good quality, loops around belt on my riding jeans or waist with the extra strap.

Good but not Great

23 August 2023 by Rich M

Initially I was really pleased as it's a great way to have items like glasses easy to reach.
My issue is in a day when we had heavy rain, it didn't remain waterproof and items inside got wet!

Perfect

Wear leather without pockets then this is a perfect solution to carrying money and phone etc
Have used it on naked and sports bike and it's securely attached.

Good thigh bag for cash, phone or ticket stowage. Secure straps are adjustable for skinny thighs or thighs like a forward row rugby player. Good quality product.
