Opposite end of the bike but I recently purchased one of these. Delighted with it so far. My use is for long days out when I want to carry a few extra bits and pieces without stuffing more in my pockets. Ordered on a Sunday night and received at 11.00am the following Wednesday.........from Los Angeles!

I have a Lezyne bag very similar to the above. It's superb. The best saddlebag I've ever had.
Mine fixes with Velcro straps which makes it quick and easy to swap bikes. It has an additional zipped compartment on the bottom which is the perfect size for an inner tube. It's not entirely waterproof but the closest I've found to date

I use a saddle bag for a spare tube, tyre levers, multi tool and dumbell spanner.
If you don't want to velcro fix around the seat post, pop a couple of extra slots in the top of the bag near the front to fully support it by the saddle mount. You can either use zip ties or velcro computer cable tidies.
(BTW, zip ties are an essential cycling accessory)

My one isn't waterproof either but it's underneath a whopping fat arse so it tends to stay pretty dry.

i use this method as i find the velcro around the post can rub on my shorts causing premature wear

The velcro seatpost straps are always about three inches too long so the loose end will rub.
Simple solution is to trim off the excess.

I used to have one of those but I found that the zip would degrade in the winter with salty spray from the back wheel. I changed to the Topeak Wedge Drybag which is (a) waterproof (b) no zip

Not a huge problem if you have mudguards none the less.

not just the loose end it tends to catch my inner thigh on the strap that goes around the seatpost the joys of thunder thighs
