Interesting question. I'm definitely a fan of smaller bags, as I manage to fill them up regardless of size. The NS L'il Loafer has been an absolute favorite, and it's roughly the size you describe (~9x5x5"). Obviously, it's designed to go on the Mini Front/Mark's Rack (pretty easy on/off for a canti brake setup, btw...), but sizewise, I can stow enough in it for the day. If you go the homebrew way, I'd have your friend tack on four "D" rings on the front - can't tell you how many times the shock cord lashdown method has been used. I do like my Zugster Rando bag (10x8x8"), as it keeps everything covered and leaves room for food and bulkier (wintery) clothing layers. hope that helps, - Jim -- Jim Edgar cyclofi...@earthlink.net "One Cog - Zero Excuses" L/S T-shirt - Now available http://www.cyclofiend.com/stuff Cyclofiend Bicycle Photo Galleries - http://www.cyclofiend.com Current Classics - Cross Bikes Singlespeed - Working Bikes Send In Your Photos! - Here's how: http://www.cyclofiend.com/guidelines -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
