Top-of-Top-Tube Bags

Post by DoctorRad »

With small frame triangle sizes on bike with dropped top tubes - particularly full suspension bikes - I was wondering what options there were for top-of-the-top-tube luggage. It looks like it's possible to use two gas-tank type bags, one behind the stem and the other backwards attached to the seatpost, but is anyone making anything which goes the full length in one bag?

I have seen photos of one. Maybe uraltour or one of the polish makers?

I was thinking of the uraltour bags as soon as I read the first post too

On the right bike I guess it would work

Have had a Wildcat Cheetah now for nearly a year - first a prototype, then the actual one.

Works well between the legs to store things I'm liable to want, but not be wanting to rummage through at all day. Works well on my frames with a bigger TT drop. I don't clap my knackers on it when I get off as I tend to CX dismount all the time.

I found it a bit too tall to go on the front - I use an old X-lab bag there instead - or a really old Revelate gas can.
