does this bag have side flaps to keep rain out & tools in?

Hey sorry this took so long! Yes it does have the dog ear flaps on each side. Great little bag for the money.

Yes it does. I haven't put it on my bike yet. I brought it for the price.The top overlap about inch from the side. The inside flap is about 1 1/2 long. You should have no problem with the rain getting inside the bag.

Yes, both side of this bag has pockets. One is zipped so you can keep your wallet in. The other side is Velcro. they are large in size, you'll have more than enough room.

No,that is the only thing this bag does not carry...it would be perfect if it had the side pockets.

I have seen some of these bags with the integrated rain fly. this model in particular does not, nor does my personal model, normally it's a small pouch near the bottom of the bag.

No it doesn't, the backpack itself is almost weather sealed, I suppose it can stand a light rain without a problem (never tested it, since I bought the cover).

It doesn't come with a rain cover, but from what I can tell it is VERY weather poor. The zippers are almost perfectly sealed, I've never seen anything like them before. I'm very satisfied with the bag. I can carry my Nikon SLR and up to four lenses (one on the camera), an SB-900, and a tripod mounted on the outside of the case. Very nice.

Yes it does. It is stored on its own pouch on the back and when deployed covers all the bag completely, I have tested it on heavy rain and works fine.

The bag itself does not come with a rain cover but the map sleeve is a clear plastic envelope (that is waterproof) that has 2 velcro patches to attach to the top of the bag but that you can then take off to take in to dry the outside and change maps as needed. We simply put anything else that needs to be kept dry in the bag in ziplocs though with the nylon weave of the bag it is slightly water repellent on it's own.

there is not a side opening to the main compartment on this bag. other than that it is a great bag with plenty of storage and protection and is very comfortable to wear. it's a big bag.

No, because of the velcro opening, rain can get into the bag. It would not be good under heavy rain, light rain would be ok.

Yes, there is an outside pocket. It does not have a zipper or velcro to close it. BUt, I have placed numerous items inside the pocket and it held pretty well. I really like this bag!

Yes. The top vents can be zipped up from the inside. In addition to this the outer rain cover will cover them from the outside and it has vents that can be propped open providing ventilation and at the same time protection from the rain. The front and back door have two flaps. One is the mesh on the inside and the outer flap for rain. In addition the rain cover will completelt close over the front and back doors enclosing a small protected storage area outside the front and back doors.

No side pockets. Main compartment, front pocket, plus two more tiny ones on outside flap and under flap covering main compartment.

No it does not but I spent a day in the rain with it. I would call it rain resistant but not rain proof. My stuff stayed dry.

Yes it does. My husband loves it and its done very well for him here lately as we have had a lot of rain and he's come home completely dry. Glad I purchased it for him. :)

Yes. It is dual sided and has zippers inside and out as well. I did learn a trick with this bag. When you put it back in the compression sack, don't roll it. Literally start with a corner and just shove it in while rotating the sack. Worked like a charm.

It's a double handle that works over the top when it's zipped shut. One part is by the raised handle towards the back, the other on the front of the bag by the zipper. No side handles. Nice bag.
