@ rjm and nun:
thx for all the links! omg the watanabe looks so well crafted
@rogerstg
To be honest i'm not using it for heavy touring. It just happens to be the most unobtrusive kind of bag for my kind of riding. Thanks for the tip tho! I'll start touring when I have rig built up!
BTW.
Would any of you be interested in bent-wood bags? I'm in the process of making bent wood saddle bags, handebar bags, and racks. Whadddya think?
