Back in my cycling days, when I had recently upgraded to a road bike, I was looking at all sorts of stuff that enables me to go light when I am riding. It was also at that point in time when Decathlon just opened the 1st megastore in Singapore, and I had the chance to go there when I had the time and look at their cycling stuff.
During one of my visits to Decathlon, I came across the 500 Bike Saddle Bag M 0.6L. The design of the saddle bag interests me and as such, I decided to purchase it.
The Product
The Decathlon 500 Bike Saddle Bag M 0.6L is made of mainly cloth material and comes only in black color. It comes in what I feel like an aerodynamic design. It also has a clip called the VIOOCLIP that allows me to put the rear light onto the saddle bag, provided the rear light has a clip.
Here are some pictures of the product that I have taken:

Usage and Experience
I have used the Decathlon Btwin 500 Bike Saddle Bag M 0.6L on a number of occasions when I was riding in my cycling days. I would say the saddle bag is very secure with the velcro straps to wrap around the seatpost and the saddle rail. I was able to put in a spare inner tube, my Syncros HP Micro Pump, and my Topeak Mini 20 Pro nicely without any issue. I also tried putting my rear light onto the VIOOCLIP, but I just felt that putting the rear light on the saddle bag was too high for my liking.
To attach the saddle bag, simply use the 2 velcros provided. The seatpost velcro to attach to the seatpost and the other to wrap around the saddle bag and the saddle rail.
