I want to share this customizable made to order front bag. I had this custom made by a Ukraine based bikepacking bag maker about two years ago, I went through a couple iterations to get the rear panel right to slot in the bag frame and changing some straps to make it suitable as a Brompton front bag but I have been very happy with the results and they make one for a friend who was also very happy with it (the black one in the photos).
Also check picture captions for more details!
Some specifications:
– Roll top construction so very expandable
– Many colour options!!
– £82 including shipping to the UK (Bag frame NOT included)
– 7-14L, excluding the pocket space
– Uses a 30cmx20cm or approximate bag frame
– Not waterproof but very cheap rain cover available
– Weighs ~500g without the bag frame. Around 600-750g with frame depending on which one you go with (full disclosure I sell a lightweight one but there are other options out there).
– Nylon Molle strap system to add lots of accessories
– Made in Ukraine!
Note that there might be a bit of a language barrier if asking for complex modifications so I recommend providing clear diagrams and being patient!
