Really cool video! I am thinking of making a similar set up (with a top tube bag and 2 stem bags also) with my bike. Really liked the idea of using plywood for the bottom and mounting it to the rack directly, I'll try it out.

Enjoyed watching this, thanks for sharing.

That is a good trip. the first part on ware creek road is a slog, I usually park at the far end of that one saves that hill for sure.

Dude your shop set up is so sick

Where do you get your ideas from? Way to go Morgan.

Cool bike!

Can you just park on the side of the road and leave your car overnight? No ticket or issue with that? I'm going to travel to Canada next week. Thanks

amazing!

When was this? I think I see my car, was possibly on my way to go bikepacking in Cranbrook haha.

I hope to get this ride in before the year is done. Nice job making things work to get yourself out.

Great working fighting through the mechanical adversity.

Hey Morgan. Looks like it was a blast of a time! Glad to see your diy bag holding up well. Shame about your derrailer. Ride on!

Hey, that's a very cool bag ! I've got an Ortlieb Quick Rack on the way and I was thinking of doing something similar after seeing your video. Only question is : what type of material and what dernier & grams/m^2 did you used ?

Very cool bag, great job !

Well done! 🎉

“I learned a lot by doing this” that’s what it’s all about… I like bikepacking and have been teaching my self to sew, both with a machine and by hand. Awesome skill to learn and I’m enjoying the process.

Dont want to pay for Tailfin but wears Arcteryx jacket :)

Do you have a link to the rack? Nice work!

Cool, but the point of the Tailfin rack is that it sits on the thru axle.

nice save with the tire levers.

just use orlieb trunk bag rc

Hey Morgan, Thanks for sharing your awesome Idea! Your finished product looks great!

Beautiful, idea, the couple and nature!!! :D For YT algorithms, as I heard - it's needed to leave at least 9 words. I hope this will help to spread the word! Awesome content, keep it up!

Hello! is your bike a CUBE nuroad Pro?

Love this, experimentation and making your own stuff is super fun. "Gen 1" of your tire lever attachment is super clever. Is there enough pressure to keep them from rotating over rougher terrain you think?

I wanted to build the same one, but I wasn't sure whats the best way to attach it to the rack. You nailed it! Very nice and easy mechanism, did you already test it on the trail?

Ehi man, very cool project. Well done, thanks for sharing such DIY esperience. Regards from Italy. Marco & Lucia

Awesome. can you tell me, where you got the fabric from? Especially the black one look like the material I'm searchin for month, and don't know what it is called... Looks roughly like the material, e.g. Eastpak is making their backpacks from...

Looks awesome man. Better than a genuine Tailfin one! 😅 love the style and colours.

Thanks so much for this, gonna make one in a months time.. Wanna try to make it large enough to fit my 13” laptop 😂

Lovely video, surprised you don't have more subscribers.

here, take my money!

Look awesome, you should be proud ! I've got the same rack from orlieb, you gave me some idea. Maybe you should use a light colour on the next one, dark colors attracts a lot of heat in summer. Thanks for sharing

Nice one. I was thinking of doing such a thing myself.. this helps immensely (for now I keep using my old heavy duty waterproof bag and a bungee cord :-)

Looks great, man!

looks great mate!

Super cool. Makes me want to learn how to sew

nice build, neat sawing. i've ripped off also a tailfin bag but made it a bit larger (my rack is also larger) and instead of sawing it I used cutouts of vinyl canvas (that I got for free at a truck cover store), and I glued them with cyanoacrylate. I made a semi-rigid bottom with coroplast, and to close it and attach it to the rack I used straps and buckles from an old bag. I only had to patch it a couple of times (with a small cut of vinyl and superglue) in a spot where it had been worn from rubbing with a part of the rack. It's already 5 years old and is still absolutely waterproof, you can even carry water on it. In summer, lined on the inside with roof insulation, makes an excellent beer cooler.

Where did you get the webbing from?

Slick 👍

fave make !!!!

What made you choose a "tailfin" bag instead of a seat tube bag? I have to choose one for my next adventure and I can't decide

HI Morgan, Nice video about a tail bag. Makes me want one now so I have to break out my mom's old sewing machine. If I make one too, I'll share my design with you. Thanks Dave.

Been going down this rabbit hole lately myself. Might consider a velcro system to attach the bag to the rack which would save some weight and simplify. Thanks for sharing!

pretty cool stuff! I would love to see how the fasteners hold up over time and rough terrain. Thanks for sharing!

That’s pretty cool, mate. Well done!

yes i like the quick release.. i have quick release on my frame bag, i sewed on hoops/eyelets and folded the elastic twice to make tab droppers..

Great ideia! ❤

Nice work..

Really cool build, Props from Sweden!
