Ditto what Doug wrote. The top of the bag does sag just a bit, which
I'm sure it wouldn't do with a decaleur, but so what. The bag sits
very solidly and comes on and off pretty easily. The strap that sells
with it is also very well done.

in your comment about the shifter bolt loosening when you shift past
the last gear-
if you put a longer M5 mounting bolt for the shifter all the way
through the rack hole, then put a washer and locking nut, would it
help prevent the shifter from coming loose when you shift past the
last gear?

I agree with Mike's suggestion to go big for a handlebar bag. The
additional capacity is useful for longer rides (and, I assume, brevets
although I don't ride in those events). There's little weight penalty
in having a large bag, and it doesn't have to be loaded to the gills
at all times. I

I like the idea of the longer bolt and nylock nut. I'd need a large
washer for the top - the bolt is special, with a wide head (and sloppy
socket interface). The ideal setup would be bolt, washer, shifter,
washer-with-a-tab, boss, nylock nut.
The washer-with-a-tab would stand the shifter off the

I'm sure you have put a lot of thought into your design.
Why do you make the stem attachment part out of two
pieces rather than one?
Berthoud makes theirs that way because they have to be adjustable
to fit on any bike, but yours are custom and made to order for a specific
bike.

I know Riv recommends a large big back rack for frames sized 57cm (+).
Does that still apply to the Bleriot or other 650b models?

Yeah, O20 is across from the original Bike Kitchen, too.
You can go build your own from random steel for cheaps.
Then when you get tired, go next door for awesome ice cream (Scoops).
Or across the street to vegetarian mexican / barbeque (Pure Luck). It's
actually not bad.

Confounded variables. Too many. But, you are on the right track. Isolate
them. Control them. There are professionals who can measure your leg lengths
and find a difference, but something is up. Is it the saddle? Loose bolts?
Pedaling? The skeleton? Muscle strength? Pain is your guide,
Upon more examination as I finally got the chance to clean up the bike
