Good Hard Holster Case?

Hey guys, I just picked up a Rebel XTi w/ the included lens. I would like to combine my two favorite things, biking and photography. I am looking for something on the lines of:

So that I can safely hang my camera under the seat of my road bike and take it with me on my journeys. I would prefer something far more durable/respectable than that, preferably made of kevlar. I am willing to spend up to $120 on this item as it is pretty important to my whole experience. Does anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks

Kata and Lowepro are the big names here. Their goodies are in the B&H list Wndrlst posted. The only other name I would throw out for consideration is Think Tank Photo. Their stuff is fairly popular among photojournalists and other pros. I have one of their Urban Disguise shoulder bags and think it's quite good.

If your goal is to hang the bag under your bike seat, then I think you're going to end up being limited to whichever models have the attachment points you require.

How sturdy are those cases in general?
