Thanks.

It's actually a DIY, formerly a camera bag, bag.

It doesn't rub on tire (anymore).

I had to experiment and modify the bag as I tried it out to get it just right.

Nice work. I see you are a new user, if you have photos showing how you converted the camera bag for bike use, and your gradual modifications, you should write up a little photo essay in a separate post.

Thanks. I'll make a post when I get a chance to.

It's basically a boat cleat attached to a dowel inside the bag...and a lot of stitching.

My ride. Its 16 miles one way to work, so i need to get there as fast as possible when i do ride.

Took Big Bird to work today since my usual commuter has a wobbly wheel that needs fixin.

Surly Crosscheck single speed. Works well for a "grocery" getter with the milk crate removed.

I have similar bike. Is it steel?

Yup, steel frame/forks it is. Been an ongoing project the last couple of years and now almost at the end.

Do you have any pics of what you have? My current set-up is pictured below.

Nice machine! Well equipped to handle the streets of STL.

Yes but mine is not a beauty(like yours) but a beast.
Here it is

This is on Spain coast when I was having long trip .
But have slightly different set up now (wide Dutch handlebars and edelux lights)

I will try to post a pic with today setup tomorrow.

Oh, making me jealous with that scenery and mention of long trip. Would really appreciate some close ups of the beast & set-up (looks awesome and my kinda bike). How long was the Spanish trip?

I rode to work on this car electric cars.

Scott Sub Evo 20
 

Here's a quick shot of my Scott Sub Evo 20. Had it about 2 weeks and about 200 miles on it. Great bike. If it was 5 pounds lighter it's would be ridiculous.

Been riding my daily commute on this for the past four months and absolutely love it!
Only mod is the saddle - a Rido R2
May need to add some mudguards for winter but an ass saver,saddle bag, water bottle and lights plus a small rucksack are all I really need for now.

I'll play! My daily ride to and from work. It's not the lightest or fastest in the stable but by far the most functional, especially when I add the panniers, so it gets the most mileage these days:

Awesome, while i do like a pretty looking bike....i much prefer to see one like yours that is clearly used & loved :thumb:
Do you happen to have a blog about your trip?

Thanks for the pics, much appreciated.

sweet looking in Black :thumb:

I picked up an old Trek 950 on Craigslist for $35. Didn't really use any of the original parts but had enough on hand to make it a 1x8 drop bar commuter. The gearing is a 38T up front and a 12-21T 8sp rear. The odd curvature of the front mudguard is because I put on an old set of 700cs I've had lying around for a long time. I know the rear derailleur looks awful but I already had it and it works!

We need a thread of just bikes and cubicle / office furniture. :)

Is that a Soho? Looks a lot like my District-S

Yup! It's an alright bike. Picked it up along with about 20 other bikes and frames and random parts a year or so ago from someone who was selling the lot - you just had to go into the crawl space!
