Minimalist saddle bag, maximum visibility
Some saddle bags want you to notice them – the Micro-Bag Cyber absolutely insists on it. That Cyber Pink isn't trying to blend in with your frame, and frankly, why should it? When you're riding in traffic or locking up outside the pub, a bit of visual punch doesn't hurt. But underneath the day-glo attitude sits typical Ortlieb engineering: waterproof, lightweight, and built to last longer than your current bike.
At half a litre, this is minimalism done properly. Spare tube, tyre levers, multi-tool, maybe some emergency cash – that's your lot, and that's often all you need. The roll closure with elastic bands keeps everything secure whether the bag's stuffed full or nearly empty, and the welded seams mean water stays firmly on the outside. Weighing just 120 grams, it's the sort of thing you forget is there until you need it.
The mounting bracket clips to your saddle rails (not suitable for carbon, mind), and the bag itself snaps in and out with one hand. The same bracket works with Ortlieb's larger Saddle-Bag if you're swapping between short blasts and longer rides, which is rather useful if you've got more than one bike on the go. The reflector helps when daylight's fading, though with that Cyber Pink, you're hardly going unnoticed. It's the bag for riders who reckon that if something's going to live under your saddle permanently, it might as well look decent whilst it's doing it.
