“Hi Guys,
Just wanted to let you know I just had a week away on my bike with my new A Bag and how happy I am with it. It worked out really well & fitted all my stuff quite well. I managed to fit in my tent, sleeping bag, air mat, joggers, jeans, 2 x T shirts, 2 undies, 2 x socks, toiletries, wet weathers, camera and assorted stuff. I had tried Dririder saddlebags, & they just didn't work out at all, but I'm really happy with my A Bag it sits on the bike very well & didn't move a muscle & didn’t scratch the bodywork. Good aussie product, keep up the good work.”
Rob, Milton, NSW
and again 7 years on;
“I bought the A Bag 7 years ago for my Aprillia Tuono and can fit everything I need including my tent. It’s still going strong”
Rob, Milton NSW
“In that two weeks I travelled over 3000ks without any problems with the bag at all. With a magnetic tank bag, throw over soft panniers, and the A Bagz I could completely unload the bike within a few minutes. In the only rain I encountered there were no leaks or wet gear even though things weren't packed in plastic bags. With the influx of shit overseas products, its good to see an Aussie product stick it up em! Keep up the inventing and I'm looking forward to your next item to make an Aussie bikers life easier on the road.”
Neil, Hailwood Replica Ducati
“The year before last I bought an A Bag from you at the GP. I dropped into your stand to tell you how well it performed in the staying exactly where it was put department. More was to come, after a great GP I decided to ride the 1300km home in one hit. Well it pissed with rain just about the entire trip, 1300km in 16 hours. Got home and expected to unload some seriously soggy clothes – nope – not a bit, f*^k all. That bloody bag had kept my stuff dry without any plastic bag type precautions. Give yourselves a pat on the back.
Bloody good. Many Thanks.”
JD, 1300km from “the island”
“I love it, it fits like a glove.”
Simon, Sydney
“Mate………..just got back from a 4,000km ride around the Simpson Desert. My primary piece of luggage was an A Bag!!! This thing kicks arse. Great bag Andy!! Thanks a Million.”

Thanks for the Response Andy,
I've listened to some audio from an interview you did + other stuff around the traps, and that is why I actually considered emailing to be worth the effort..................

"Hi there Andy. Just wanted to say that the gear I bought a couple of months ago - dry bag, overgloves and a few other items - has all been used for long rides and in terrible weather - all 100% satisfactory. One thing I have had to replace is the wonderful Bucket Bag - I left mine in a cafe, Damn!!!! And now cannot do without it, best bag ever".
Thanks, Malcolm Ross.

Hi Andy
Well I have just returned from the Off Centre Rally at Lorella Springs in the Northern Territory. Prior to going I came down to your factory and bought a set of your Expedition Panniers, A Bagz, Flat Stapz, Piggyback Strapz and a set of over gloves. All the gear was brilliant, hard wearing and lived up to my high expectations. I had one day when it poured rain all day and the panniers remained completly dry, the A bagz however did let some water in. The over gloves were great and kept my hands dry and warm. Thanks for producing such a quality product and even better its made here in Aus.
Best regards Marcus
I don't think the panniers were put on in a recommended way, but it still worked bloody well. I can't tell you how much crap I have piled in there. Astonishing really. And they really were waterproof."I sold a set of Expedition Pannierz with the last bike. I want a new set for this bike. They're f*#ckin' brilliant".
Dave, phone order
"The panniers I purchased off you 30,000km ago are still going great!"
Andrew, Leeton, NSW
Ride report from four blokes with Andy Strapz Expedition Pannierz. Bloody good gear they are too. We went through torrential monsoon rain on one day and no moisture was found inside the Andy Strapz bags.
Thanks Andy

"I got taken out by a dirver at an intersection. The bike was a write off but the Expedition Panniers only had a few scratches and small tears".

"Andy Strapz held my double swag safely on the roof rack of my 'Cruiser from the Gold Coast to Broome and back via the outback. Great Product!"
Gaylene, Gold Coast, Qld
"Andy Strapz are tops. They kept our swags safely secured to the top of our Landrover on a recent 5000km pub crawl! They are good on the back of the bike too!"
Dean Mellor, Editor 4x4 Australia
I have used the Strapz for over 12 years. Ridden in USA, Central Australia and many other roads. My Strapz have done around 110,000km, holding bags to bikes, bike gear and cartons of liquid refreshments. Riding made easy!
Jeff, Frankston.
Ran the new straps on a 3 day ride through the Snowy last weekend, lots of dirt, the straps went great, basically a “set and forget” item. Stopped several times while others readjusted loads but mine never needed touching throughout the day, great product!!!

One of many things I admire about you, Andy, is that you use the products you sell, and you don't sell them unless you've personally found them to be worthwhile. It gives me confidence that I can buy anything from you and not give a second thought to its performance. It'll be great. My Expedition Pannierz, over gloves, Abagz (even though I tore the straps off and still haven't sent it back as you told me too), Flat Strapz, even my i-phone Pelican case...all exceptional product. I also swear by things like my Jetboil and Orbit Lantern which I didn't buy from you, but are so frigging good I'm not surprised to find you stock them.
So I've no doubt the boots are as good as everything else.
Cheers,
TF

Just gotta tell you that Piggy Back Strapz are freakin’ brilliant.
My bike’s left pannier doesn’t latch properly (the reason I wanted the strapz in the first place) and on a recent Road-Test the Strapz came up trumps.
Despite almost snapping my spine, when inadvertently crashing through a monster pot-hole, the pannier stayed on board (although dislodged from the keeper).
I figure I’ve now saved heaps, not having to buy a new latch OR a new pannier. Very happy with the Strapz.
Jimbob, Port Campbell
I have had a set of 1250 piggybacks for 4 years. They are brilliant! The gear I carry with them is incredible. The velcro strapz have never let me down and still work as well as the day I bought them.

“The best thing I have bought for my bike. I have four children, who are now, 20, 18,16 and 13. My youngest daughter is wrapped in the belt, mind you so is my wife. This is a great product and I wish that it had of been around when my children were younger.”
Greg, Sydney.
“I have found it to be exactly what I was after. It is light and very comfortable to wear. As it is light you don't realise that you have it on. It gives my son confidence in knowing that he can hold onto me and I find it reassuring knowing that he is holding onto me as well. I also tested it with a friend on the back. He found it comfortable as well, he could rest his arms on his lap while still hold on.”

"I bought a pair of rainoff gloves @ the Ulysses AGM in Coffs. On the way back, after a stopover in Canberra I left @ 7.30 am and it was bitterly cold. Just out side of Canberra my fingers started to freeze off and I remembered my new gloves. I quickly slipped them on and in a matter of minutes my hands started warming up. I kept them on for most of the day. Terrific gloves guys, not only for rain. Many thanks".

“Have recently returned from a trip from Victoria to WA, approx 8000kms over 15 days aboard my Moto Guzzi V11, using the Smart Strapz to hold my gear. Worked a treat, no problems whatsoever, quick and easy to use, simple but effective.
So many thanks for a product that does the job so well.”

“Once everything was strapped into place and despite gale force winds between A/Springs and Pt Augusta absolutely nothing moved. There is no way that Bunjees could have done the job. I have no problems in recommending the range of Andy Strapz quality products to anybody that cares to listen”.

G'day Andy,
Further to our conversation at the Moto G.P. I thought I would give you a user's report on your Tank Bagz. I rang your office and ordered a bag, it arrived in Sydney three days later. Unusually for me, I followed the instructions and the thing fitted like a glove. For the price I could not find a comparable bag. The size was great, I can easily unclip it to take it in to a pub or restaurant. Refuelling is no problem. The little raincoat worked perfectly. After 16490 km around Australia, including more than 1000km on the dirt my tank is still unmarked. No problems at all. Thanks mate."
Chris, Sydney
“I decided to purchase your tank bag after checking out a few magnetic ones which wouldn't quite fit securely on my V Strom 650. Fitting it took a little bit of thought. The rear straps were fine, just used the bent metal straps under the lower lip of the tank. The front one around the steering head worked fine
The front one down around the (bulbous !!) fairing and such - I used 2 of your loops (one each side ) which looped on to the tank mounting bracket, right around and under the fairing and tank . The loops are long enough then to reach round to where I could attach one of the tank bag straps between the loop and the tank bag D rings. It looks a little untidy, but functions very well.
The whole thing was very secure (as you probably nod your head) - I was very pleasantly surprised at how secure and unmoving it was. Of course, unclipping the front buckle and swinging the bag back to re fuel works a treat as well. The zips are excellent and very easy to undo - I took a lot of photos (many while seated on the bike with helmet on) and had the camera in the bag so a quick unzip and grab the camera for a quick shot then back in and zip up - very easy.
Yes, I'm very happy with it after just one trip, 1,000km over 2 days incl 150km on dirt roads.

Want to say your products are the best. Rode to ACT via Batemans Bay then home to Central Coast via Hume H'way over Easter. Heavy rain at times especially on M7. The A Bag ,Pannier Linerz ,35 Litre Dry Sack and Top Sack kept all our gear dry as a bone.
They also didnt move an inch all the time we were travelling along. We ended up doing around 1,000 kms in 5 days. I would recommend your products to all bike riders we come across.
Please keep up the great work. Your customer service is also up there with the best of them.
