I have one bike with a Carradice "Zipped Roll" bag, which is a little bigger but similar sort of thing. It's a better bag, but it's also more expensive. I like both.
Carradice make great bags. Another option is the lovely cottage industry out of California - Acorn Bags. They nicely compliment English bicycles. But, their inventory goes FAST once they restock.
