Dahon "Speed" Bag
I have a canvas bag for my Dahon "Speed" called "El Bolso", but I hardly ever use it because it's too heavy and bulky and I don't want to lug it around with me on a tour. I heard that a "Dimpa" bag could be used, so I rode out to my local Ikea and bought one, but the fit isn't the greatest:
http://s1-02.twitpicproxy.com/photos.../445077865.jpg It'll work, but I'd like to have something that would cover the whole bike. These bags are so light and they fold up really small. Anyone know if there's a similar but slightly larger bag on the market? |
A few years ago, I used to buy JIO luggage bags rather inexpensively from a discounter local dollar store once located near my residence (has since went out of business). These bags fitted all my bikes with room to spare. I sold one bag along with my Piccolo and was included in the sale price (the buyer just love it-it was like the bag was made for the bike). One bag was destroyed by my rather frisky cats (the bike inside was well protected from them). I still have one left for one of my folders and it is holding up well even as it is used every day. Their website-http://www.jioluggages.com/ -still is operational but does not seem to have online ordering offered. I am going to downtown Los Angeles's Garment District very soon for another requested sewing project. I will make a point to stop in their showroom and see if the bags are still available for sale as I would like to replace the other lost ones.
I will let you know what happens. |
