This is a review for the Topeak MTX Trunk Bag DXP Bicycle Trunk Bag with Rigid Molded Panels

[jameswhite]

Had the same bag for 6 years now, confused how the one negative thing you said at the start was how they’re easy to take off in 2 seconds with regards to theft - that to me is why I like it so much, each time I park my bike I take it in seconds off and carry with me where it’s got my valuables in which I’m pretty sure was the entire idea for making the MTX system....🤷‍♂️ easily the best bag I’ve ever owned

Great point you made in the beginning about having the bag with the straps because i have that bag and I don’t want someone to steal it. Thank you

It would be really easy to drill a hole in the yellow release lever so you could insert a small padlock. Then, until the lock was removed, the release wouldn't press far enough to allow removal.

I am so excited to find this review! I just bought one, really not knowing what I was getting and wow....it's amazing. Thank you. Now to look for rain cover. LOL

Just ordered one for my old school Schwinn World Sport a week ago. Got the Velcro option since I didn't feel like getting a proprietary rack. Seems nice for everyday trips and light cargo.

I have had the same rig for 5 years and mine is finally getting raggedy. I have the rack for it on two different bikes. I will replace the bag with same. For me, it is the best commuter bag set-up. I love for winter rec riding to bring along all the extra winter swag you need.

I suggest you drill a hole through the bag removal clip (on the top). You can then put a small padlock through the hole, which will prevent people snatching it :D
I hope you understood what I was trying to say hahaha

I am searching a bag with quick release. It helped for me very much. Thanks for the good review on this bag.

I was so impressed with your review that I bought one for my bike. 😀

I have an older model of this bag. Same but no water bottle holder. The zipper which you pointed to did fail on mine. I used it nearly five days a week for many years. I plan to fix it by sewing velcro in its place. These are excellent bags.

Great review, exactly what I was hoping for thanks. The Topeak quick release system looks brilliant but I must admit I had never thought about the potential ease of theft. But I'm not going to leave it on there when the bike is unattended, and I don't really think that anyone would be so audacious as to nick it from behind me while I'm on the bike...

Suggestion for locking the bag t the bike. With the bag in place on the bike, drill a small hole (3/16 or so) through the bottom of the bag and the rack. You can now run a small bolt through this hole. Thread the bolt into a nut below the rack, and you have a simple, concealed lock. If you want to get fancy, use a captive nut on the bottom of the rack.

I get the panniers and the rack as well on Monday along with my Trex FX 3...Happy Days!!!!

Thanks for the detailed review, I am currently considering this bike rack/bag combo.

Reflection is required in some countries to be included on cycling accessories - I remember it was an EU / EEC requirement. Plus the Industry standard was something like 5 or 10 %

Hi what do you do for waterproofing, is there a cover, and do you put your gear inside dry bags for safety, one thing you could add your self even, a small elastic strap on the top of the bag, so when you open it up put the elastic strap around the nose of your saddle.

[championkhamis]

Hi good video, to secure the bag from thieves, you could put a cheap bike lock through the shoulder loop and around and through the saddle rails.👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Which bag is the one with the larger side pockets, but not the full drop down sides ?

[markbivens]

I love my bag, you can put in a 12 pack of pepsi but I hope they make the side bags a little tougher.If you buy a can of Kiwi camp dry and spray on bag, makes it water-resistant.
