I have a carradice pendle that should be in within the next few days. I'll be able to give a little overview and show the amount of junk i can fill it with.

Good result @Accy cyclist you won't be disappointed. The frame is worth it too. Who made the bag? I have a Christine and I think an Andrea. The camper longflap is sooo old I thing it was made by Mary Magdelene!

Good score @Accy cyclist, I like traditional businesses, one of my supply places in Bury is identikit to that.
& @Fab Foodie my bag is a Kelly.
What is(are) your Carradice(s) named could be a thread of its own.

I tried out the new bag yesterday. I managed to fit in three cycle jerseys, a pair of longs,a coffee flask, a box of sandwiches, a spare inner tube, a glasses case,a couple of bananas, a pair of winter gloves and it was still only about 2 thirds full.

I don't think so per se, but inside the bag near the dowel is a small label and usually the name of the person who made it is there in biro ....Do they actually personalise the bags they make?

I have no idea what she looks like, but she is nothing short of a a customer service deity.
My Nelson was made by Andrea, and a fine job she did too.

Just a side question do the Carradice racks allow you to fit the bags to set ups that don't have the means to mount a bag to the saddle normally? I have an I-beam saddle which has no rails.
