Topeak Small Handy Phone Pack

As a cyclist that often gets the "Where are you and when are you coming home?" phone call from the better half, I can appreciate the necessities of having your phone very handy when those calls come in. I usually would carry my cellphone in the MTB rack-bag that I carry all of my tools and spare parts in when I go to hurt myself in the woods, or I would stuff it in my camelback pocket during road rides ... either way, the phone never got answered or never heard when it was ringing.

I needed a better way to handle my phone while I was riding.

I purchased the Topeak Handy Phone Pack, Small, for my Casio G'zOne Granite ruggedized phone along with several of the Fixer F66 handlebar stem mount nuts.

It turned out that this bag produced a tight, almost vice-like grip on my cell phone ... albeit I have the extended battery on the back, so it is a tad taller than it would be otherwise. That said, this death-grip on the phone is a very good way to carry on rough trails or on the road.

During my weekly off-road ride, I heard the phone ring ... I began to pry the phone out of the bag in the time it took to miss the call ... I'm gonna blame it on the battery.

This size issue is an easy fix. So easy that this morning I swapped the battery out for the standard one the phone came with. That dropped the depth of the phone down to what falls within the specs of the bag. I'll test fit it out tonight when I get home, but I think that that one change may make this bag come into its own when I use it on my next ride. 30Aug11 UPDATE I tried the phone in the bag last night and it was easier to get out with the standard battery installed.

I also was very impressed with the Fixer 66 mounting nut.

This thingamabob is one of the greatest things for cycling since kevlar lined knobbies. It held my overstuffed Handy Phone Pack on a very rough trail that had some rather abrupt stops that I did not plan. It easily released the pack from the built-in clip even while I was wearing my full-fingered gloves. It is a wonder that other phone bag manufacturers are not using this clip set to attach their bike bags with ... simple, elegant and tough. It is also cheap enough to purchase one for every bike that you ride ... at least that is what I did.

Sturdy case which comes with Topeak Fixer 55 mounting strap. This case wasn't large enough to hold my Blackberry Torch.

I needed to replace my old reliable Topeak pack to carry a flip phone or my other smart phone and maybe some gue. I could not fit any phone into this pack. I also ordered the Topeak Handy E Pack at the same time. This small pack will never get used. I supposed I could mount it somewhere and carry tube patches.

The mount is fine. If you only want to carry one VERY small device or your car keys, it will work great. If your cargo is much bigger than a keyless remote and key ring, look for a bigger pack.
