[MENTION=134924]RidingMatthew[/MENTION]. He has an Arkel Trail Rider trunk bag. $114 online. It's a pretty cool bag. I'm considering getting one for my bike as well. I haven't decided yet though.

thanks [MENTION=321300]Seano Hermano[/MENTION] I got an email the same day from Adventure Cycling with that bag on there. Looks like very nice bag for the top of a rack.

Sorry, those old (~1984) Nashbar touring frames are actually quite well made (rebadged Japanese make IIRC), but the geometry seems a little weird. (26" wheels, but the fork seems mismatched).
Nice bike!

Now though I have switched to a kittier, for waterproofness, decoratable surface area, and fredliness.

Nashbar frame bag and Nashbar DayTrekker panniers. I wanted something smaller for the summer when I'm not carrying as much. I usually put my work clothes on one side and my lunch and maybe a jacket on the other side. This fall I'll switch back over to some larger panniers. This is my first time using a frame bag and I really like it. It's great for my phone, wallet, keys, and maybe a small snack.

Here's one of my bikes I use for my 11 mile round trip to work. It's a Xootr Swift w/a set of custom built wheels rockin' WTB rims and a NuVinci hub. The tires are Schwalbe Big Apple 20X2.0's.

And here's my Puma Nevis W/an Origin8 Classique CargoUnit Front Basket and a Nexus 8 speed hub. I swapped out the riser stem for a Truvativ Hussefelt Stem, so it's been updated since this last pic.

@tumbler that is just awesome. I would love to have a folding bike someday I will.
Still a work in progress, by took my first little stroll with the new seat tonight, now I understand why they cost so much........ Just need to get the appropriate seat bag and matching handlebar bag, a front rack, and make the switch to metal fenders...........
