    Title Black: What's So Great About It?

    Since I started bagging I've heard/read nothing but GREAT things about the Title Black Speed Bag. I don't have one but I am somewhat intrigued to say the least. Can somebody please tell me how these bags respond as compared to (bag X) before I dive in for $100. I've gotta know!

    Any feedback on this is appreciated.

    I don't have one, but be sure to wait for a 25% off day, like today.

      Title Black

      The leather is really nice. Probably the softest, easiest on the hands of all my bags. I got it for Fathers day 2017 and it is in excellent condition except threads came undone at bottom. That is my fault as I got too rough removing original bladder and ripped out the glue circle thingy, and had it repaired/stitched up. The shape is what alot like as well as it is a VERY fat bottomed girl. Suppose to be 8x5 but more like 8plusX6plusplus. It has a light presence when hitting so it responds like the other Titles except Perlious but it can be drove to fast speed. I dont have an Ali bag but in my head I figured they might be similar perhaps?
      In short I would getit again and was gonna do next vid with it any how.

        Caz, can you measure the circumference of the Title Black with a cloth tape measure or string at the widest point?

          Everything he said and also I like the different textured panels, one kind of shiny leather and the other soft. Both take the hands well, even when pushed to a bit over-inflation. I like the feel and the action on all swivels I hung it on. Here are a few comparison pics....

              Big thanks, guys. I think I'm sold! Going to pick up a 6"


              In the pictures you posted Alan, the black looks to be shaped like my Ali Authentic bags which btw have become my favorites. Can't say enough about them.

                  Just shy of 20" Rusto, and the Arc loves this bag as well!

                    Sorry if I am being a nerd here, but that makes the the diameter roughly 6 1/4"

                      Well I guess I said 6plus plus..... So a "plus" is equal to .125" in this instance.

                        It was delivered today, slight abnormal shape as it is a tad more bulbus? on one side over the other. That said it reacts like it should but it has a very small and tight loop, with a little Vaseline I worked it on to the arc. The loop will adjust over time.

                        I have an extra enkay bladder as well as an everlast bladder and I am toying with installing one of those.. Anybody replaced the bladder from the black? It's hitting fine and I really like it but I am curious about the bladder swap.

                          They often are misshapen. Most of mine have been. They'll punch out fine.

                          I've never changed out bladders in one. I dont endorse changing out new bladders in a new bag. Some people do it but I've never had the need.

                            Enkay bladder swap

                            I swapped mine to an enkay about 6 months after receiving due to the valve leaking. It was definitely an improvement but I think it was my first attempt at replacing and I tore the glue/valve circle out. That lead to the welting coming undone and panels separating. Luckily my mother was able to salvage it for me and it is still holding up. Out of the bags that I have had the longest the leather on this one has held up the best. It is a great bag for sure.

                              Cazbag, when you got your black for fathers day do you remember the tag having an S or an XS?
