Tank bag for Qingi QM200 / QM250

If you ride a Qingqi QM200GY or QM250GY and are looking for a tank bag, this one fits our tank very nicely.

It's priced at 208RMB on taobao but they sold it to me for 180 at their shop on xincun lu (shanghai). It's not a high quality bag but it's cheap and works. Lots of convenient pockets and plenty of space to put all the shit you use on a day of biking. It comes with a rain cover but I wouldn't really trust it through a heavy storm.

It's supposed to mount on the tank with 4 strong magnets. They work well for positioning it but probably won't hold it there through a day of riding. Luckily the bag has some straps so you can carry it as a backpack and they fit perfectly around the tank on the qingqi. Clip the two ends of the straps together through the holes in the fairing and pull to tighten into place. Takes a second to install and remove.

I'd never ridden with a tank bag before and it changed my life. Highly recommended for touring.

Nice looking bag Felix. I also like the story your mirrors are telling;

Left..."Man, this bag is flickin' BAD ASS!
Right... "Dear, yeah, it's cool and all, but can we ride now?"

One downside to a tank bag is that it interferes with my range of motion when standing on the pegs, which I do fairly often. I can't lean too far forward with the bag there, without interference with my nether regions.

Felix, any problems with the jewels when standing on the bike?

(Perhaps that's why Panda looks impatient...)

cheers!

Euphonious, on the qingqi this isn't really a problem since the side panels are way too wide to stand up anyway. Perhaps your balls are just too big...
