What about your tank-bag?? Is it one from Gericke or special made for you?? 
Isn't it difficult to handle a bigger tank-bag (not when driving, but e.g. 
when it starts to rain, etc.)?? And, what about the room for your knees then? 

Do you have to fix it at the crash-bow are the "motor-saver"? Is it possible 
to use it with a crash-bow?

I'm asking all these questions because I sometimes saw such a tank-bag, but 
till now never had the chance to take a closer look or even test-seat a bike 
with such a tank-bag.

Is it possible to lock it, and if, how secure? Cause I always have to take 
my tank-bag with me when I'm off the bike, because it is a magnetic one.


greetings,

Achim Muehlberger
