My friend has a 3" wide PVC tube mounted behind his Clem's seat tube. The tube holds a monstrous chain lock (Kryptonite NY lock?), and allows a mini U-lock to shackle through the tube and chain.

I think water bottle mounts make sense, especially on step thru's. My Clementines bottle mount goes unused because mounting a bottle there sort of negates the step-thru nature of the frame. I believe Grant has a bottle mounted behind the seat tube on his. I've used a handlebar mount on mine or sometimes I bungee it to the side of my basket. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

It's not large, but would hold a water bladder, or tubes, tools, and a windbreaker. It's a neat setup, but I lack the sewing skills. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Collin, I have my tent poles in a 500d Cordura bag I made and I lash it to the seat tube with Revelate straps. The bag helps protect the frame a bit, and the Revelate straps prevent any movement, rattles and wear.

Colin, great name. My sons name is Colin. I have my tent poles in a cordura bag I made, to help protect the paint. I use two Revelate straps to hold it firmly to the seat tube to prevent rattles and wear. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Nice, are the poles just strapped on using straps/velcro? Yeah, its very satisfying when everything finds its way to a perfect spot on the bike!
