Kim- the Gus pump peg is on the non-drive side chain stay, near the BB cluster. On Feb 23, 2023, at 12:47 PM, Kim Hetzel <krhet...@gmail.com> wrote:
Upon a closer look on the upper part of the seat tube between the seat stays, I do not see a frame pump peg on Brian's Gus.

This custom made bag of Brian's would not also interfere with the pump pegs on the backside of the seat tube ( I did not know that the Gus Boots Willsen had a pump peg behind the seat tube. ), but also having a frame pump mounted there. Furthermore, I think the bag might interfere with having a rear fender between the chain stays and kickstand plate ?

Laing, in this case with this design it most likely would interfere. I specifically wanted this bag to carry my pump and all my tire tools so it serves its purpose in that respect. I use a Lezyne Micro Floor Drive HV, and it’s small enough to fit in a variety of my bike bags. I just like the idea of having all that stuff in one designated space.

Ever since taking ownership of my Gus last Fall, I had designs on having a custom frame bag made for the space behind the seat tube on the frame. I guess it's the bikepacker in me, but it seems like there's just too much usable space there to not take advantage of it.
I reached out to Andy Schmidt from Lords Luggage in Portland (he runs in the same bike scene circles as Rivelo John and Bantam Cycles Bob), and he enthusiastically accepted the challenge. Click the link above to check out the photos!
I'm super pleased with the results... it's exactly what I was hoping for. I mostly keep my tire repair stuff in it; pump, pressure gauge, spare tube, puncture repair kit, 2 oz bottle of sealant, shop rag, and still a little room to spare.
If you're looking for a custom bag like this, or other bike bags and handmade luggage, get in touch with Andy! Thanks for looking!
