Does anyone know if the Acorn Tall Rando Bag will work with the Nitto 32F
"Campee" rack?
The dimensions on the Acorn site look like they'll work with the 32F rack .
. . but has anyone tried this setup? What happened? Any recommendations,
cautions, or advice?
Nitto Rack:
I also use the VO decaleur that mounts in the headset stack, paired with a
Nitto Mark's rack and an Acorn rando bag, all on a 55cm Sam. The system
works brilliantly, even off pavement. The combination of the decaleur,
tombstone loop on the bag, and four under-bag velcro straps is rock solid.
Not entirely true. VO makes a fitting for threaded setups as well:

If you have a threaded steerer, your choices are Berthoud or
Nitto/Grand Bois, and if the latter, then you also need the Grand Bois
stem. If you have threadless,

Answer:
It works pretty damned well. It's on my bike.
I *do* wish that it was keyed in back, so that rotation was impossible, but
since I keep the lock nut tight, it works quite well. I've hauled some
very large loads in various handlebar bags.
Note that rotation is somewhat less of an
Bullcrap.
I *do* have a VO decaleur ('cause it was cheap) and a VO Rack, but the bag
comes from Ostrich, and isn't even made to use a decaleur...

any decaleur will work with any bag. Decide what design of decaleur you
prefer. I have a Nitto rack with a Bertaud decaleur with an Acorn bag. I
like the way the Bertaud decaleur works, and I like the way it looks when a
bag isn't mounted - it's unobtrusive
here's the decaleur with an

Provided it fits, that is. There is but a narrow range of heights that
will work with any particular frame size handlebar position.

yes, probably what I have on my tall bike is the only combination that will
work - an 11-inch-tall bag. I mentioned on one of Mark's threads before
how I measured to determine which decaleur length, and also showed how I
used leather washers on the Bertaud to prevent it from ever coming lose
