FS: Restrap 14l saddlebag £65 [SOLD]
Got it used, rode a handful of times. Has a scuff on the bottom of the holster from the seatclamp, otherwise unremarkable as far as I can see. I laced it a bit differently than the default to get the holster to be slightly narrower, should be easy to reverse. £65 + £5 postage. I'm limited to one pic...

Re: Longshot - Swift Zeitgeist or Wizardworks Shazam Handlebar Bag Wanted.
I've got an old small zeitgeist but feel a bit attached to it. It's cotton duck on the outside though, I think I saw an old post of yours asking about xpac zeitgeists?
However, would a carradice Cadet suit your fancy? It may work as a front bag, I have it set up like that but am not in love with it.

Re: Van recommendations
I don't hang here that much, so I missed this thread when it was active, but maybe I can get someone's ear.?
I've been wanting to buy and convert a van to live from for a long time now, but I'm a student, and I don't have much money. Can this be done for under £3k? Please don't crush my dreams.

Re: Quilts.... again
There will be plenty praise for the quilt and probably the taiga line (probably add some width for the taigas), but don't knock the comforters. They're maybe a bit fiddly and potentially drafty, but also lighter and cheaper.

Re: Borah bivy or mesh inner for a Gatewood.
I keep meaning to test how waterproof the tyvek bag really is - I think the seams wouldn't hold up under any saturation. That said, the back is a solid panel, so it should be fine in place of a groundsheet. It's only no use for bugs, where the borah comes in. There are cheap bivvies like the borah o...

Re: Borah bivy or mesh inner for a Gatewood.
Although I just got it and only set it up in the garden only, the borah bivvy fits in terms of surface area but the head tieout is a bit tricky. The panel is not under tension and the inner attachment is not really high enough. I was meaning to experiment a bit but just didn't get round to it. I ta...

Re: Budget Mini Front Rack Hack - New photo
Thought one would probably need to drill it. I'll have to find a workaround.

How'd you get the canti boss mounts off? I'm trying on mine but it's a pain.

Re: Help me think this through...
I agree with above, 650 on the road frame shouldn't work. I have friends that brazed on canti mounts lower on the fork and seatstays, but this is steel they worked with, and well, they know how to do it. I never looked into carbon stuff, I only know planetx has 'gravely' framesets for £1k. You seem ...

@10:26 these guys mounted an oldie clamp on the handlebars, much like the above suggestions.
