The reviewer considers the stabilizer strap essential for preventing the messenger from shifting while cycling, yet says it is sold separately. The reviewer notes that the bright orange liner uses the same dry-waxed canvas as the exterior, making the interior durable and attractive. The reviewer says Cobra buckles open almost effortlessly compared with stock metal hardware and can be closed one-handed with practice.
The internal layout includes a long zippered laptop compartment and a medium zippered valuables compartment for items such as wallets and passports. The reviewer describes the bottle pockets as flush and unobtrusive when unused, while the main compartment remains generous.
