Bought it maybe 6 months ago for my mountain bike. It seemed ok at first. I ride 7 miles to work each day one way. 5 days a week. I put my work back pack on it so I don't have to carry it. Some days it weighed more that the new weight limit of 10 pounds, but most days it did not. The Tubular spine is aluminium so it started to bulge at the base of the tube and the paint started to flake off at the top. After 3 months the bag area was level and slowly headed towards the wheel. Then before it could make it the aluminium pins holding the clasp together broke. Its not very well made. Everything is Aluminium to save weight. Its weak. The printed card that came with it said it could handle 40lbs originally. It was edited with a sticker that said 10lbs. I don;t think it could even handle that over rough roads and time. Get something more durable. This doesn't last. I got a Topeaker QR beam rack in the end. Its a bit shorter which is a shame but its much more solidly built.
