[RBW] Re: WTB: randoneur style bag for front rack

[Andrew Turner]

I've got a Ruthworks I'm trying to sell on eBay which will work great with 
this rack. Here's the link  to the 
posting. It's basically new, used once, but I did cut a small slit in one 
of the back pockets for an external battery that's been covered with some 
tenacious tape. For RBW Group: 165 +shipping. 

Cheers, 
Andrew

I suggest you look at the Roadrunner bag VO sells.   It was made with 
grommeted holes in the back which match the holes in the VO decailluer. 
Randonneur Handlebar Bag - Velo Orange (velo-orange.com) 

I see they are sold out, but give them a call and see when they will be 
in.  I believe they are MUSA, so the wait should be short.

 The VO decailluer is too short for standard Berthoud type bag ad does not 
reach the leather strip typically on the back of the bag..

To follow up on Minh's questions - I also commute in SF, and I like to take 
my bags off my bike if I lock it outside. So what's worked well for me is a 
front rack with a Wald basket with a bag that sits inside. 

Here's a sweet bag that's made locally too-

Hi Jon

congrats!  are you asking for a bag that would work with the rack decaleur, 
or one that sits on the rack--like the fabs chest?   
Have you ridden a this bike (or another riv) with a large front bag?   as a 
fellow QB owner who loads a bunch in my front rack, the steering can be a 
bit of a surprise!  

enjoy, and welcome!
