from what fingers was saying, I understand it as; it is not necessary to have the bladder air valve tip coming thru the hole. Just have the bladder lined up to the hole in order get the needle in. Whether or not the valve is inside or outside the bag. Sounds comparable to a plumbing trick you would learn from an "Old Plumber" to make it easy and work. ( not saying that fingers is old )

One of the "phases" I think many of us go through is expecting these small bags to be bouncy and straight. The leather is relatively thick, and even if you put in a nice orange EverLast bladder, they feel a little unresponsive and weird. The yellow (small) bags are not typically graceful, and it takes a little time to appreciate them for what they are. One of my favorite small bags is the Title Black Speed Bag ($79.99). It has a very thin skin, and with a bouncy bladder, is very responsive. You're going to have to learn to love those yellow bags for exactly what they are - and you can have a lot of fun with them.

I bought 2 Title Speedbags recently as I really liked the size and look of them but the only problem is no matter which way I hit them they wouldn't go straight! Which probably isn't surprising as they were both lop-sided to varying degrees (see pictures of the 2nd one). I noticed that they were made in China, obviously because it's cheaper to have them made there. [I had the same issue with two Everlast 9" x 6" bags also which were also lop-sided and again made in China].Have I just been unlucky? So does anyone know of an 8" x 5" bag that's more or less guaranteed to be of good quality and so probably not made in China? Thanks for any help.
