I've got one of these and used it for many years Carradice - Bagman Quick Release Saddlebag Support - Expedition with either a Carradice Originals Lowsaddle Longflap Saddlebag or Carradice Originals Barley Saddlebag.

The Barley was perfect size to carry lunch and things for a work day, the Lowsaddle Longflap is postively Tardis like and swallows loads.

Yep. They attach with a quick-release clamp. The Micro-bag might be best match for the one linked in the OP.

I've been using one of these for about 3 months. Very happy to recommend.

Café du Cycliste has a Tool Saddle Bag that’s the best I’ve ever used. While it’s not cheap, mine has proven 100% waterproof, convenient in use, and stylish. Also, it looks like new—after a quick rinse—despite winter usage.

I couldn’t agree more.

The quality and practicality is amazing.
