Rapid Transit Recon 19 Magnetic Tank Bag Review

[GoAWOL]

I decided to purchase this bag because of the options available on it. You can display a map and view your cell phone at the same time

MSRP = $79.99
Newenough.com = $71.99
Ebay Purchase price = $53.99 www.dsrpowersports.com (http://www.dsrpowersports.com/) 866-959-GEAR

Initially I thought the bag was big, almost too big. But once I mounted it and placed items in it I realized that the size is perfect. Along with a perfect size, the bag has multiple options that are creatively labeled with small picture patches. For example, the pocket designed for an MP3 player has an earphone patch on it.

Speaking of options, this bag has quite a few.

- Hydration pack bag (holds 100oz) and weatherproof exit hole for the drinking tube
- Weatherproof earphone hole for your Mp3 player
- Waterproof cover has own pocket
- Cell phone holder with clear cover
- Map Pocket with clear cover
- Multiple interior pockets for money or other small items
- Two long exterior side pockets
- Exterior pocket for sunglasses or another item that size
- Converts to a backpack
- Has a durable feel to it

If I had one complaint so far it would be that the map pocket is a bit thin in width and requires you fold your map multiple times to fit it in.

Over all I’m very, very happy with this purchase and would recommend this bag to anyone.

I like it, i will check it out, perhaps a group buy is in order? Nice write up too, thanks for taking the time and posting this up:thumbs up:

Thanks Chief. It was my first gear review so I wanted to do it up right. I like seeing gear reviews that include where it was purchased. I'm really pleased with the bag so far. Not sure about a group buy since I've never worked one but I'll give it a shot.

I'll second this bag since its very similar to the one I have, I forgot the actual model name unfortunately. The pockets are the same as the OP's bag. It does not have a reflective strip on the sides. I did get the larger bag with the collapsable bottom portion which also separates into two different tank bags.

It held enough clothes and gear for a three day weekend while I rode from Northern VA to Deals Gap and back.

The only downside is if you have the stock windshield (like shown in the pic) then the gauges are not visible.
