They have to make the design more compact and streamlined. It might be ok for a casual rider but someone who spends hours on the road will want something much, much smaller.

Very true! Concept is good but the bag for far to large and heavy for anyone other than a limited/short distance rider. Maybe a second model about the size of a fanny pack with a belt setup which could also allow use as a seat bag.

I wouldn't want the bag, just the LED panel... which it looks like you can remove from the bag and have hang from under your saddle. Unfortunately a road bike seat is skinnier than the panel and probably would break it off anyways.

Definitely aimed at the commuter rather than the 'serious' rider I'd say.
Just back in this morning from a quick 30mile blast and I know full well it's not something I'd use, but if I was travelling home from the office and lived in the city then I can see the merits.

Yeah - pretty cool if you lived and rode in a big city constantly.
