This morning the parcel arrived. I was very excited to fit Kedan Griffin’s, The Bike Bag Dude’s bags to my bike straight away. They were a perfect fit.
The top-tube bag fits my charger battery perfectly, and the connector from the USB goes nicely through the concealed hole at the front.
I am very pleased with the quality of Kedan’s craftsmanship. Also, extremely thankful that he manufactured them for me so quickly. I found dealing with Kedan extremely easy and satisfying.
The frame bag has an internal divider. My water bladders will fit inside the top half. My tools will sit in the lower compartment. The top tube bag will house my phone and the charger battery for re-charging my lights, phone, GPS, and other electronics. There is a concealed hole at the front of the top tube bag for the connector to go from the USB and the charger battery. The bags are double lined and waterproof.
You’ll note that I’m proudly wearing Kedan’s Bike Bag Dude T-shirt. (Even the T-shirt is an excellent quality Gildon T-shirt.) Plus, another lovely touch, including some little sachets of Vegemite 🤗 I’ll be taking them on my next bikepacking trip. Nice.
I’m going to remove the bags temporarily. I need to install DataDot anti-bike-theft bike ID kit and register it. Plus, I intend to wrap the frame with clear aeroplane tape to protect it from the bag straps rubbing.
Later, when I’m all packed up to go on a proper expedition, I’ll post some more photos.
Thanks indeed Kedan Griffin for his excellent service. Thanks must also go the Adam at Commuter Cycles for recommending you. Such an excellent recommendation.
