I am a commuter by bicycle and sometimes I just want to take a smaller bag other than my timbuktu backpack. I had a chromebag at one point, but I'm not a big fan of unpadded bags, but I love the fit. Chrome bags are great for the cinched fit.
I have tried other messenger bags and they often just slide down and don't hug my back and is distracting when cycling. I am wondering if others have found options for a larger cross body or a messenger back that would accommodate the fit I am looking for.
I found this bellroy that I think might be a bit too small and a peak design bag that looks like it might not be tight enough to stay in place with a laptop

If you only need 10 liters, a large camelback or cycling backpack could do the trick, just take out the water bag.
I worked as a courier, and never liked the messenger bags. They don’t hold much and are always sliding down. Not to mention the huge thick strap they have.
