The spec is 4kg (8.8ish lbs). I ride mine filled with heavy camera gear and haven't noticed any steering issues. I'll have production samples in a few weeks, perhaps you'd like to test one? On Thursday, November 5, 2020 at 9:59:33 PM UTC-5 Roberta wrote: > About how much weight can you put on

Re: [RBW] Re: Handlebar bags

Howdy Patrick & Leah 1. The current weight spec is 4kg or ~8.8lbs. It's pretty hard to get beyond this weight unless you are carrying something very heavy. For instance, a 32oz water bottle will fill most (not all but most) of this bag's internal volume, but that bottle + water still only

I have both Ortlieb and Arkel handlebar bags on different bikes - in fact I have mounts for the Ortlieb on two bikes and for the Arkel on two bikes. Both bags work well - they click on and off the mounts quickly, and are perfectly stable in use. I use the padded Ortlieb camera insert in both

I designed the Route Werks bags. There were an astounding number of scam sites that popped up once the Kickstarter was funded. I tried posting about it here but the post was taken down. Our test team is packed with riv-riders. I even put my Rivendell in the video! Anyway, I can attest that
