the bag system is from www.carradice.co.uk and you will find it by searching for Carradice Limpet front rollers - so you will be able to see the problem better, as I may do it in that description. http://www.wallbike.com/carradice/limpet.html
Next question would be for looking after a solution for having mudguards fitted on the bike. I know, ther are no eyelets or other fixing points, but it would be great to know, if someone had fixed mudguards, may be on a bit curious way. Bike Friday does fix the mudguards with using just one screw in the centre - would that be an idea for Downtube? I want to takle down the Grand Union Canal path from Birmingham towards London in mid of October and I´m expecting some rain and muddy sections on the way (it´s about 150 mls to London). So it would be great to have a solution for that problem as well.

Best regards
