Who makes......

As Wildcat aren't up and running just yet for custom builds......

Which companies make custom built waterproof frame bags with a roll top opening rather than a zipper?

I'm thinking of one for the Fat bike for next months WRT and beyond

I think Alpkit will do you a roll top if you ask.

Maybe worth checking this company out too. https://www.bike-bag.co.uk/index.html

Cheers, no reply from Alpkit

Wizard Works aren't doing custom frame bags for the foreseeable future they say by email.

And 7Roads was the name that I forgot who say that they would need more time.

I'm chatting to a very nice fella called Matthew at Custom Merit Gear over in Amsterdam who so far is talking a great talk.

Let's see what comes out of it.

Thanks all

You could give https://www.straightcutdesign.com/ a go. There isn't a roll-top option on the site but Ross seemed very open to requests when I got my custom frame bag done. His communication was very good and the bag I got is great.

I had the same experience as Neil with Straightcut. Great bag and fits perfectly.

I looked at straightcut last night they aren't making custom frame bags at the moment either?
