How are those side pockets for sweatshirts, long sleeves, etc?
Initial concerns: How long will the expanded mesh hold up? I foresee tears or rips from burrs on the edges of discs. How long will the elastic last from shoving discs in and out of the pockets?
Possible design changes: A larger strap (1" webbing would work) to hang the bag from on a tee sign or to simply pick up and carry between short walks. The 1/2" (?) strap on it now seems like an afterthought. The strap should also be sewn a bit wider at the anchor points so it's easier to slide your hand in.
Smaller mini pocket, or at least reduce the size of the opening so things don't slide out as easy. Maybe even a band of elastic sewn along the opening to hold the mini in better while still allowing it to be 'quick draw' style.
Wow, just want to say the Rebel has been blowing me away, super comfortable bag. Best backpack bag i have ever tried. The only gripe i can think of is the verticle disc holders are a little flimsy, and can only fit 2 discs in the bottom one comfortably.
The suggestion of putting the divider pads behind the discs has worked out great for allowing the discs to sit better in that bottom holder.
In future revisions i would look at improving on the 3 disc holders, making them more rigid and hold their shape better so its easier in/out with discs when full.
8/10 overall after using the bag for a while now.. easy 9/10 or possibly a 10/10 if the 3 disc holders were more solid and perfectly positioned.
The aches and pains are gone and that's what matters most to me.
Great feedback guys.
On the vertical slots, I know I have heard on the GB Simian and Ergo Bags that it is best to put the discs in backwards or upside down (flight plate to the back or bottom) would this help at all for this bag as well if put in this way. Just a thought.
How much are the rebels? I just saw a pic of one on another page and it was love at first sight.
Anyone else with a Rebel want to chime in on the Pros and Cons of the bag?
I'll be comparing it to my previous bags; 1st run grip, innova competition, innova disccarrier, fade competition, and my current bag the salient helix. Which is sub part to say the least BTW.
