custom rolltop frame bag

Post by HaYWiRe »

So finally got image hosting on my phone, woo!

This is my 4th frame bag,using a rolltop instead of a zip this time, which I now much prefer,
Made using 1000d cordura in Foliage Grey, with some blue vinyl for good measure

Also pictured is an alpkit tapered supported by spares from a rack underneath making it solid as a rock

And here are my 2 feed bags,and gas tank, again 1000d each holds either a water bottle or tons of snacks, gas tank holds spare glucotabs, insulin and needles

That all looks really good! I take it the rack supporting the AirLok is just a seatpost rack, bent upwards?

Even simpler, its the wire arms that connect the top of a rack to the seat stays, you can buy them on their own as spares, mounted to an adapter for bikes without seat stay braze ons, doesn't support by itself, but gives the straps something to pull against stopping sway, bop or wagging

I'll try and get some pictures on my break
