    Wauw very cool to have a peer review of our products! I'm quite amazed by how much you went in the technical details of the design and intent of all the features. Sometimes it's a bit hard to communicate all the design features, but you really got it spot on! We are very glad to hear that the tapered part is to your liking. It is often a bit of an educated guess for the proportions, but it's something we are looking into for future developments.
    btw Mathew does not have dissociative identity disorder😂. Mathew and I (Mickey) are often swapping email duties based on our study schedule.

      I enjoyed making the video on a quality product. Win win.

    I've had the same framebag, fitted to a Kona Unit X. It's a great bag, well build and well designed. I had it fitted to the bottle bosses. This make for a clean look, but also destroyed the waterproofness of the bag, so I wouldn't do that again...but the bag itself was just perfect! Loved the doubledecker insert, tentstraps and side pocket :)

      Out of interest how wide was the bag? You have a large triangle on that bike so also what the bag’s capacity in litres? What do you have now? :-)

      @@North3rdMedia I think it was about 6cm wide. It was indeed a large bag. Never gave it a thought how many litres it was. It was much larger than the 6 litre Ortlieb bag I have now. If I must guess it would be closer to 10 litres, maybe even more. I could fit a LOT af stuff in it :) Had all my repair stuff in the bottom half (sealant, tools, tubes, ty wraps, tape, chain links, pump, etc.) Tent poles in the straps, all of the food in the main compartment and 360 camera, selfysticks and minitripods in the side section for easy access. Did not us a watersystem, but used the hole in the front to route the wires from my batterypack to the bike computer.
      The only reason I sold the bag, is because I sold the bike ;)
