I'm sure Stu will be all over this... :lol:

The new Dangler Pro from Farther Bag Co is like a little jacket for your favourite camp mug, allowing you to dangle worry-free in the most trying conditions.

Obviously, there's no point in dangling a mug from your bike unless you want the entire world to know that you're a knob - however, then placing said mug inside a purpose made bag in order not to get it full of crap when you could (and should have all along) packed it inside, is like the next step up the bell-endery ladder of knobishness.

In the past, I've achieved much the same effect with a bit of old carrier bag and an elastic band.

I once knew a girl who used the same items but for a different purpose ... but similar maybe.

I'm amazed how small you can get elastic bands these days

Um ... er ... well ... I think I want one. I have never dangled but I am very dangle curious. Key thing putting my off was the pic Stu posted from a WRT a while ago where he'd dropped a rubber dog poop into a dangler's mug. Funny. Cruel, but funny. I usually carry my mug in a stem cell or in a fork leg bag. What's t'difference to carrying it in one of these dangler bags?

I really like the tungenchic of the Farther Bag marketing gumph too:
Or as Farther Bag Co puts it, it’s just one of their “unnecessary products to fix all the non problems in your life.”
