I've been looking for a pair of waterproof bags to use on my fork cages to store a sleeping bag and other gear. The options from Revelate and Tailfin look good but I just stumbled upon these replacement dry bags for the sea to summit bikepacking tent. They seem pretty well made and a very reasonable price. Not sure on dimensions or volume though. Does anyone have any experience with these as standalone fork bags? Any reason I should go for something different than these? Also open to other suggestions for waterproof bags in the 3L-5L range. Thanks!

Sea to Summit Big River.
Second the Big River dry bags (5 or 8 liter). The fabric on those event bags is too light and will get damaged easily.
S2S bags aren’t exactly dry bags. *Mostly* dry bags, I’d call them. Good for your tent, not so good for electronics.
I use the 8L size of the sea to summit dry river bags on my fork. It works very well. The 8L bags are approaching the limit of what is reasonable to put on a fork size-wise, so if a 5L is sufficient for you, that might be the size that you want to use.
