Easy to do, doesn't look bad, and adds exactly 73.756% usefulness to 
the thing.

Excellent mod, and nice Grantish turn of phrase.  We should have a Group 
Writing Contest.  Everyone has to submit a post writing in the voice of 
Patrick Moore imitating Grant.

 strap here doesn't have to carry the weight. 

 I used cheap by-the-foot nylon webbing from the nearby hardware store. 
 I wanted thinner webbing to match the shoulder strap but they had 
 none, and I'm glad after the fact that I did use something wider as it 
 is more comfortable around one's waist. 

 The bag is just the right size for casual loads on the gofast, as in 
 swinging by the PO on the way home. I carry a Velo Retro musette 
 stashed in the seat wedge but the Grabsack is larger and carries 
 weight much more comfortably.

 That's Chris Kostman's bike, which is the 1st All Rounder. You can see
 the story here:

 It was originally painted orange like an XO-1, but was re-painted
 fairly recently. There are some great pictures of it in the Velo Cult
 museum: http://velocult.com/bikes/rivendell-frame-black/

 I wonder what the reserve is. It's my size but my new Bomba is
 all-rounder enough for me.

  Now I am a natural skeptic, but I dont want to besmirch this seller
  unjustly. One would think, however that the first ever production bike
  from Rivendell would attract more attention. This fact at least
  seems to be the justification for the what I would call really high
  price for an almost 20 year old frame.
