On the other hand . . .
It's probably not too wise to ride around for extended periods of time without a few essentials; air pump, pressure gauge, lock, printed copy of local regulations, pen, paper, sun screen and maybe a sweater for when the ride turns a bit cold.
I don't think I can recommend the Segway Handlebar Bag as a replacement for a briefcase, but for holding stuff you probably want to have access to every time you ride, it's not all that bad. |

For my needs
I've found the handlebar bag to be great. I was surprised at the amount it could actually hold. I also like the way it looks. I went for a period of time without a handlebar bag (and was spoiled by my Gen1 bags), and carrying all my "stuff" was a nuisance, since I don't do back packs, but do carry a purse, at least, daily.
The zippers are a bit fiddly, I admit, but I've never had any problems closing them - maybe it's the size of my hands. Pam |

I wouldn't know how to make it any better. Wouldn't be without it.
Edit: Rubber bumper would make it better (stolen from Pete's post). |

It seems almost perfect to me. I have no problems with the zippers, in fact I find them less fiddly than the the conventional zippers on the gen1 bag. If I had to come up with improvements, there might be 2 things:
-Bumper made of rubber, not plastic -Bag could be a little larger |

Great Bag, clean design, protects your LSF when your parking Stand Fails... ;)
The bag is quite useful. Fits a nice bottle of Merlot, your Lock Kit, spare tools or batteries for your Headlamp, etc...
A clean, modern design that many people somehow mistakenly believe powers your Segway... The front solid plastic makes people assume it's hardware, related to the battery or motors? *shrugs* It also works great as a HandleBar Bumper (never publicly released) when your Official Segway Parking Stand fails. *thunk* SEGsby |

i love it
I use my i2 to go to and from work every (nice) day, and I use the bag daily with no problems. I agree that the zipper pulls could be improved, but not to the point of being a real problem. My lunch box and a couple of cans of diet Coke fit in it with room left over for other stuff; when i need more space i use a backpack.

Could be better, but gets the job done...
Let me start off by saying that the bag is quite nice. You can fit a vast amount of stuff in a relatively small space, not to mention it serves as a decent bumper as well as IMO finishes off the look of the seg. However, the zippers are difficult to use with gloves or wet hands, the price is a wee bit high, not to mention how easy it is to over open the bag and spill stuff. But you can fit a vast amount of stuff in there, I carry a cell phone, lock, segway literature, pens, business cards, air pump, tools, hat, a copy of local laws, and still have room left over. Not to mention carrying a 40oz canteen clipped to one of the D-rings

Ah, the Segway designed bag, hard to install quickly due to the tight fit of the wire loop to the sewen pocket was the first problem. I fixed that by putting the bracket into a vise and "sqeezing" it together to about 1-3/4" wide (2" wide is standard), so now it slips right on. But most of the time I just hang the bag onto the bracket by the handle. Much faster and performs the same. Next the zippers. I coated the zipper run with bees wax to allow the travler to pull smoother. OK but it needed me to drill a small hole in the plastic travler and insert a key ring. I added a plastic key fob and this almost made the bag easy to use. Space in bag was OK but I started to carry some different stuff. I started with a extension cord from an old computer power cable so that I could plug-in where ever I was. Camera for recording good events. Tire guage but no pump. Roll-Up nylon jacket to ware or use as a machine cover and a local city map. No regs and other materials that would ever be used to support an arguement with the local police. I did start carring some business cards from the local Segway dealer to give to people who wanted answers to lots of questions. My overall rating of the Segway Bag C+.
