Nice set up. I've been considering the large Saddlesack for a while now.

Do you know where your friend got that low-trail front fork?

it's an Electra fork from it's ticino parts collection.  it's
available 1 or 9/8, with or without canti studs.  I think you can
order one directly from Electra's website.

 my buddy is using that big 'ole bag on a VO porteur rack -

I bought one of the last Banjo Bike made VO porteurs.  Definitely well
made.  The chrome plating ultimately proved too loud for my liking, so
I donated it to a local not for profit bike shop.  Will be going with
a Capricorn Camper rack instead.

I like the capricorn racks, too. A goodly number of capricorn's bikes
are appealing too.

Especially given his relatively young age, Brad Wilson really has a
deft touch with the torch and strong sense of design.

My hope is someday Riv signs Brad on as a custom builder.  Course,
maybe Brad has enough going on he couldn't accept the business.

I agree with you.  You do want to buy both those things.  I'm loving
mine, on both counts.
