The finishing touches...

I have finally completely finished the handlebar bag.
My brother made a hanger for it out of a steel rod...  
..that hooks around the stem...
The bag slides securely on...
...and the underside is fastened down with velcro...
I tried it out today by filling it with books and returning them to the library.
It performed flawlessly!

Very nice!

One thing you might also want to consider is adding a couple of d-rings to the top, to make it easy to affix a map case.

I've looked at a few pre-made map cases, but they cost more than I want to pay and I would have to find one with dimensions that fit the top of the bag. Somewhere I heard of using a ziploc bag as a map case...I may do that.
Thanks for the d-ring idea...I hadn't thought of that!
