The limited volume forced me to think carefully about my gear and helped me to keep the weight down too. Since I took the photos I've bought a Carradice junior saddlebag that works very well as a handlebar bag and gives me a bit more room than the zipped roll.
You'll need a big saddlebag, mine is a Nelson Long flap 18L capacity
