That's huge ( 70 litres) to be putting on an enduro Dave, plus all the bulk is very high up. You want something that sits lower and wraps round more like the horseshoe shape Giant loop etc.
This is my Altrider, about 40 litres I think and not really too obtrusive for TET type trails.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking Nick. There was a brand new in the packet but secondhand one on ebay, auction ending an hour ago. Went for just £20, but I decided against exactly because the bulk looked too high up. Would be OK on a roadster for a few days away - but I've always used Ventura rack/bags for sports bikes / road bikes and would rather stick with them.

As you say, the weight has to sit lower. Problem is I'll just crash and smash up everything I put in there anyway...

Great cheap idea. Have you a link to the Mole bag?
