Fresh Goods Sunday - Part 4 Final - Park Tool BAG-15, Repair stand bag

This is the final Part of the Fresh Goods Sunday special. This week is the Park Tool BAG-15 Travel and storage bag for the PCS-10 repair stand. I dont intend to use the bag for travel but mainly for clean and safe storage of my stand. When this landed i was expecting a larger / heavier / stronger bag. When i opened it up and un zipped it you can see through the material. The zip is of very cheap quality but the shoulder strap looks ok. I folded down the stand to see if it you fit and it does! there is also enough room for the tray and bar holder. I would not like to think i was carrying the stand a long distance in this bag it might drop straight out of the bottom. The rrp is £30, shock horror! i paid £17.83 inc next day delivery and even that is too much. To be honest this is not the best bag i have seen by a long way. Im surprised Park Tool have put their name on it. Its certainly not upto their excellent quality of  tools. Time will tell if the zip breaks or if the stand falls through the bag. Here is the Park Tool blurb - Heavyweight nylon bag with shoulder strap for transporting and storing the PRS-25, PRS-15 Race Stand, as well as the PCS-10 and the PCS-11. The BAG-15 is 48-inches long and is 24" in circumference.
