Hi Doug! Yes, it’s waxed canvas with a PE stiffener going all the way around the bag. I think the lining of the interior might be X-pac. Not waterproof by any means, but good enough for me.

Well done. When Rivendell started their long wheelbase designs, I saw that space as perfect for a bag. Good to see it exists. Is there any coating on the bag facing the rear tire so keep contents dry? Sort of a faux fender? dougP On Thursday, February 23, 2023 at 2:05:10 PM UTC-8 brok...@gmail.

Thanks for the kind words, everyone. I’m happy to share stuff like this. I’m glad some folks caught the Riv-centric detail in the attachment loop made from a John’s Irish strap. That was a nice little surprise that Andy (the bag maker) threw in!- Brian On Feb 23, 2023, at 1:05 PM, Kim Hetzel wrote

Hi Brian, That is why Laing's frame pump is inverted. I understand now. I'm currently making custom frame pump peg for my Clem Smith Jr. "L" between the upper seat stays on the seat tube. I will post it later when I am finished and mounted it on my bike. Thank-you, On Thursday, February 23,

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

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 o
