“I can’t believe that is homemade”
This 17L bikepacking seat pack by Prickly Gorse is designed to fit nearly all bikes that have enough tire to seat clearance. This allows easy carrying of your camp or commuting gear on bikes that cannot fit a rack.
Uniquely, this design has optional sewing steps to make it work as a convertible backpack for short distances on foot, or for hike-a-bike sections.
This is the same tried and tested design I use to occasionally sell custom made bags at Prickly Gorse Gear
