I've spent years and years strapping my whatever-bag to my rack with bungies. It takes a lot more trouble than something that's made to attach and detach easily. Every time I use bungies, I have to invent a new way of attaching things. I also have to be careful that the bungies are tight, because if they come loose and grab the wheel, it's inconvenient at best and dangerous at worst.
