I bought this critter knowing it was small and merely for humping around my iPad, iPhone, compact camera and a few nicknacks. Indeed it serves this function without a whimper. Wish the iPad pocket was a tiny bit larger so I could pack the device inside a protective sleeve, but not a deal breaker. The bag exterior material is of good quality but thinner than the ballistic nylon used on the larger Timbuk2 messenger bags. Makes for a light load but is pretty floppy and formless unless stuffed.
If you wear the Catapult as designed, tight against the body with the built in shoulder pad on your right shoulder, the strap length is ample. I'm 5'8" and had to tighten it the maximum amount to get it to fit snug. I'm toned and slender, but not skinny. I imagine the strap would be too long for really shinny or small folk. You'd have to be really beefy to max out this strap.
Don't buy the Catapult if you want to wear it low (below the hip) and off one should (non-sling). The strap is too short and attached at the wrong angle. This bag needs to be worn high and tight and is the ticket for racing your bike down the ave or running like a crazy man for the train.
One gotcha about using the Catapult is poor access on the run. Even if you release the cross strap and rotate the bag to the front of your body, it is too close to your face to comfortably lift items in and out. So you need to release the buckle and drop the bag to belly level.
So a near perfect bag for fast biking with wee cargo but not a good choice for one shoulder below the hip use. The Timbuk2 XS Classic Messenger is a better choice if you're a low rider but need a small bag.

This pack is exactly what I was looking for. Great quality, great size, affordable. I can fit my iPad 2 with a flip case in the provided pouch. I am a big guy (6' 2" 255lbs) with a big back and chest. The strap fits perfectly with extra room in the adjustments! I don't see how anyone could have an issue with the length of the strap.

I love the Catapult, it is the best quality bag in its price and function range. Being a minimalist, I don't carry a lot with me and this bag allows me to do that comfortably. I love the way it slings over my shoulder and fixes behind me so that I don't have something hanging down from my side like most messenger bags. Allows me to go through crowds without constantly bumping into things or people. It has enough room for my iPad, notebook, chargers, and a book if I want to bring one with me!
