Can anyone recommend an under seat bag.

I have a the same JANDD Tire bag and it's great. I also have a two Carradice saddlebags, but prefer the JANDD as it't vertically aligned and by that does not stick out so much on the sides. Most classic saddlebags are unfortunately horisontal aligned.

The Rhinowalk T603 seat bag looks very much like the one that is shown at (noglider's 06/03/19) post.
It is incredibly inexpensive at approx $3.50 with free shipping from a huge seller in Hong Kong on the bay.

I use this inexpensive 'cyclezone' triangle frame pouch. I purchased a blue one and a red one, Mine have 'cyclezone' just like in the photos. I have been using one for a while on a men's Suburban and another is in use on my neighbors' Kent GMC Denali.
I did source them direct from China. I specifically chose this pouch as it said 'cyclezone' and had colors that I liked.
There are many huge Chinese sellers of these pouches, all are about the same, except that others' say B-SOUL on them, or have TRINKA on them, and then there are others that have nothing labelled on them.
The sizes vary slightly according to the particular make of pouch, and their coloring and color selection varies among these different makes.
On the bay, these new pouches direct from China sellers range from $2 with free shipping to about $3.50 with free shipping.
'cyclezone' versions (#173768846156) (#173380660127) and (#173373256414)
'B-SOUL' versions (#254289846533) and (#283543001279)
'TRINKA' version (#131848508731)
'plain no-name' version (#173823868782)

I've got a couple of these.
Decently made and attractive. I did have to punch an additional hole in the seatpost strap so that it would fit tightly around a 26.8 seatpost.

@robertj298, check out the Blackburn Wayside waxed cotton canvas roll bag and musette. I don't even need another bag but I want those.
I've been using an old plain canvas No Boundaries shoulder bag for years for everything -- as a grocery tote, rolled up and bungeed to my rear rack for spare tools and gear for long rides, etc. But it lacks the extra strap of the Blackburn musette to keep it on the small of the back rather than gradually sliding forward and bouncing on my left hip.

The closure mechanism has two parts, there are two internal flaps that are secured with velcro, and then the outer flaps are held in place with the twist fastener. So it really isn't under much of any strain at all. The heavy lifting is definitely done by the velcro.
I'm not exactly filling it to the brim, either, so I anticipate these will last a good long time.

I like Orucase
It's a saddle roll, so can hold a lot or a little. https://www.orucase.com/collections/...ts/saddle-roll

This thread tells me I need a nicer looking saddle roll for my non-brooks bikes.
But I also like the idea of using a wwii era pouch and bungee.
Those are only £40 in basic colors at Spa Cycles. I like the matching handlebar bag they have for £57.

I also have a Carradice zipped roll and like it very much... Tweed and tartan versions available for a few bucks (er quid) more. It requires a saddle with bag hooks (ie a B17), but is small enough to not need a support. More expensive than some, but worth it IMO.

I had a nice young man construct a large saddle bag out of an M1945 Cargo Pack.

Maybe some day I'll see about getting panniers made out of the main body of the pack.
