Mosko Reckless 40l & 80l bags vs. Giantloop

Question for those who have used the GiantLoop bags..... I
have been in contact with the guys at Mosko about their new
'Reckless' 40l and 80l bags. Take a look at these videos that
show their 2 'Reckless' bags.

Would love to hear from GiantLoop owners on how these 'compare'
to what you have. A little cheaper than GL too. One (of
many) concerns is easy of removing / installing the bags, you
know, since our beloved fuel filler is in most inaccessible
location!
Mosko is a small company out of Portland OR and a real group of
riders. Great to deal with and trying to make their name known
in the market and have been super responsive to emails so far.
I don't really want to deal with side racks etc. Wanted
something like the Giantloop bag. Wonder how the lack of rear
subframe etc on the 690 will hold up with this style of bag.
Looking to finish riding the TAT late July and trying to figure
out how to carry stuff without the Dakar support trucks
following me (ok, not carrying THAT much stuff!)
Appreciate any feedback.
(Also going to post this on the TAT FB and 690 us owners FB
pages - so sorry for any duplicates!)

I understand the desire to keep things light, but I thought the
distribution of weight provided by sideracks was a greater
benefit. Besides, the side racks themselves are actually very
light.
Good luck on the TAT. I wanna see some pics and hear your
story. Don't worry about duplicate posting, it will just give
more folks a chance to read about it.

It's a cost thing also..... racks get $$$
Soooo if anyone has a set they want to sell me, let me know!

I like the looks of these. they seem pretty well thought out. I
need to start doing a little more research to figure out just
witch bags I want. I think the 40l would be good for weekend get
aways.
