The Echelon [S]

I was contemplating between this and timbuk2's messenger bag, but have decided on this. Best bag purchase ive bought so far. The features included are next level for the price that other brands couldn't match. The inner lining gives me so much confidence in being under the rain. The extendable straps to hold bigger items has helped so much when bringing back big boxes. Would buy other bags from LBB next time! 🇸🇬

Easy to use and super versatile. My work clothes and laptop are protected from the elements during my daily commute. I bought the Tiny Houdini accessory which holds my phone and garage door opener perfectly. No regrets.

As a cyclist for at least 40 years, I've had many bags :-) Life Behind Bars Echelon S is the best messenger bag I've ever had. Versatile, waterproof, roomy for its size, super comfortable, great looking, smartly designed and the workmanship is quality. The magnetic closures work perfectly and the strap for this type of carrying is the best I know. You can also choose to carry the bag on your left or right shoulder with the removable strap. Smart. The idea of putting the laptop compartment on the opposite side of the bag from what is usually done is brilliant, it doesn't lean against your back when you carry the bag. There is a handle on top to grab the bag easily. The inside of the bag is made of a completely waterproof, bright yellow material that allows you to see very clearly what you have in your bag, even at the bottom. It's surprising that nobody distributes this brand in Europe. The quality-price ratio is superb. The Echelon S costs $95 while the equivalent in the most distributed brands, like Chrome, Timbuk 2, Freitag or others cost much more. These American or European brands whose manufacture are often outsourced and yet extremely expensive to purchase. LBB is an Indonesian brand made in Indonesia. Trying a LBB bag is adopting it. Congratulations LBB, I'm a brand new fan.

Forget all usuals american or european brands, made in Asia with western high prices, like Timbuk2 (good as well) and Chrome Industries (which fail on me), etc...This bag is fantastic, very confortable, spacious, clever, waterproof and very good looking. It's a pity we don't find this brand in Europe, the price is great (but the shipping from Indonesia makes it quite more expansive then)...One thing I would ad to make it the perfect bag is velcro's silencers...What a great work LBB, congratulations, I am a fan now:-)

Been using it for years as a bike messenger in SG....keeps docs dry and safe even though im soaking wet...inner liner started to flake off due to wear n tear....prolly gonna get e same bag as a replacement
