I know I'm late on this thread, but I'd just like to add to the discussion that a Mark's Rack or Mini Front Rack with a Li'l Loafer / Sackville TrunkSack (small) is a swellegant solution. It not only places the weight down lower and but keeps the ability to strap on a sweater, etc, to the top. If you want more room, add a Keven's Bag / Sackville SaddleSack (XS) / Brand V Seat Bag to the bars and you've got great access, flexibility, and weight distribution. Plus it works with any handlebar--including m'bars, which can be hard to bag so to speak--and smaller frames.
This set-up has just about all of the things folks like about boxy rando bags . . . the only thing I wish it offered was the slide-off- the-rack-and-voila- it's- a-shoulder-bag aspect of the BarSack and BarSackRack! The BarSack/BarSackRack is about the same in cost as the FrontRack/TrunkSack combo, but a front rack, I'd offer, is more flexible in what it can carry than a BarSackRack. (Read this out loud and you'll swear the Riv collective is in cahoots with Dr. Seuss!) Okay, one last thing: a TrunkSack or Li'l Loafer on the front is so dang dapper! yours, Liesl -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
