I have a bolt on top tube bag that bolts on the top of the top tube near the stem. Recently I saw an ad for a bracket that attaches to both the bag and tube, to turn it into a quick release system. Has anyone else seen this item? I can't seem to find it now. There is a qr for water bottles by Bontrager ,that looks lt would work, but seems to be available only in the UK
Apidura made a limited run that had a magnetic attachment - the screws stayed put in the frame, but the bag could slide on and off. As far as I know, that's no longer available. I'm interested if you find another option - seems like a great idea to swap a bag between bikes or to take your valuables if you have to lock up a bike somewhere.
Also just found the Stealth Magnetic Top Loader with a similar system, and still available. The magnetic attachment is an additional charge to their basic Top Loader.

That’s pretty slick! Raising the bag off the top tube does make it a little wobbly, but it also gets it up off your paint.
