Evening,

I've seen these bags before and i'm thinking of getting one. Can anyone give me some recommendations/links?

Cheers

    I've got a Jandd Frame Pack and I like it.

    Got it from jandd.com in the US. Didn't take long to arrive.

    Is this the sort of thing you mean?

    Yeah that's spot on, how long did it take to arrive?
    Is it one of these (http://www.jandd.com/search_results.asp ... 2&subcat=5) that you have?

    Can't say for certain - it was a while ago. All I remember is being pleasantly surprised.

    Maybe by now there's something similar in the UK. You could ask at the CTC forum.

    The product id of my bag is FFP. It's the only one I could find anywhere for the front of the top tube. There are quite a few for the back of the top tube like the Jandd FSNP, or like this one:

    Wiggle sells the bags for Cyclaire pumps (without the pump) - it'll take a couple of tubes a+ repair kit and fits behind the head tube - and @ œ3.99 you can't go wrong!

  • Ones very like the Nashbar are very often available in Pound Shops etc for, yes, a œ!
    I've got a couple that I picked up simply for cheapness. Handy for carrying a
    chain and lock.

    That Topeak one is tiny - about a quarter the capacity of the Jandd one.

    I have a Topeak one fitted to the back of the steerer above the top tube. I keep food in it!

    Aldi or Lidl sell good ones for about a fiver Zipped top pocket and two side pockets plus shou;der strap. I use one. Ideal.
