Looking to buy one or the other and from viewing their specs they're both the same size, weight and look alike internally, yet the Wiggle one doesn't get as good reviews vs the CRC one.

Both seem to have the issue of the bag leaning to one side depending on how the bike is packed but the Wiggle one is currently £125 vs £170 for the CRC one.

Any reason(s) not to buy the Wiggle one?

Thanks

The CRC one will be easier to see inside as you pack the bike. It also appears to have reinforcement panels at the front.
TBH I doubt there is much in them in use and £45 is £45

But of course the real answer is get the Evoc one

I can’t seem to create a link but take a look on eBay for a “Chain reaction cycles pro bike bag” being sold by. Tri-Sports-Resort.

This is wiggle’s eBay outlet and they have an ex display on sale at the moment. I just bagged a new one for £110 so a decent saving. Stick a bid of £115 and I reckon you’d be ok!

Is it for a road or MTB?

I recently took my road bike to o, in a lifeline Eva case, bargain and everything arrived safe and sound.

They sell both the wiggle and CRC pro ones all the time, I got mine for £80 (sorry)

They also sell the more basic version with separate wheel bags which you can get for around £35

That’s taken the sheen of my bargain bag somewhat......

@jonnyboi and @mrjmt what’s the weights of your two bags please?
@mrjmt I’m looking at packing my Boone in one and not sure the ISP will fit inside; have you tried with a Seatpost still fitted?
