Why so complicated? Can just clip the dry bag top to the rack then strap it with small tie down strap or velcro or buckle strap

This is great!

Any advice on fixing flats on a travoy?

Really cool!

you think this will work in a motorcycle?, won't the bag rip because of higher speed??

Neither is "better" the hollow BBs are just lighter. Unless you have an other reason to change the BB leave it be.

Did you ever show it on the bike? Guess I'll look at your videos

Nice video thank you.

Nice

Thank you for this review.

Awesome! I may copy that 😅

Vise grips are very versatile. I carry a needle nose variety. Another great bike tool to carry is the ¼" bit drive set by Icon from Harbor Freight. It comes in a little plastic case & has Allen, Torx, flat tip & cross tip bits. I carry a chain whip but cut off half of the handle. I bring the smallest adjustable wrench that'll fit my cassette removal tool. I got tired of breaking the crappy Brooks galvanized tension bolts so I replaced it with an M8 stainless button head Allen bolt & tapped the original tension nut to 8x1.25. Now, I can tension the bolt from the front with an allen.

I'm a backpacker first and peanut butter jars have their uses and was wondering if anyone else out there used them for bike kit storage. I'm on team PB 🤣🤙

I have a Shimano Deore XT front hub and after just spreading the fork a little bit while installing the wheel it was a perfect fit without the washers, rotor fit perfectly and brake adjusted like before. Crazy that the Shimano Deore XT quick release hub works with both! I had to loosen the caliper to give it enough wiggle room while spreading the fork and popping the hub into the fork holes but after that, it's like the hub was made for it.

Wow, much easier than I was thinking of. I’m definitely going to use this.

Bought the washers, tried to install the wheel, but since the width of the QR hub is slightly wider than the TA hub, I had to have someone pull the fork apart while I slid the wheel in place. The result was fine, but I'm now worried I won't be able to install it myself if I have to change a flat out on the road. Not sure if others have the same experience, or is it just my QR hub that is slightly wider than the TA?

Can you make a video of how you'd actually install these? I'm thinking of getting a cargo bike that only has threw axle front forks when I already own a very nice set of qr carbon composite sealed bearing mags. Thank you.

Can i use this method on a front wheel?

Other than spendy boutique parts. Mass produced square taper BB's are all made to be cheap, and disposable for low end bikes. So there is a lack of options for better square taper BB's without getting something super spendy.. Your stuck using a cheap one that still costs just as much as a higher tier Hollowtech BB. I have seen square taper cartridge BB's go bad after a few years from being left outside, or bike frames that were laying on the ground. They are not exactly indestructible.

I have these I think they shuld had put zipper into them it would had by smarter options along with the velcro and the clippers

Back up there boys. I heard you say 'they failed on the first day' followed by 'but that's minor stuff'.

VERY practical. I have a Travoy and am looking at using it for touring. thanks

How do you attach the backplate to the bag?

I have the black one as my bike is white frame black wheels so I kept the theme as black and white. Which I absolutely love it...

This works but carbon frame will keep the wheels în place because of the surrounding material of the frame around the washers and the presure you put on the qr What happens if the wheel splips and rupture that material? You can make a tiny cilinder to fill the gap between the qr axle and the interior of the drops,' of the frame somehow Again the frame has a concave contact point between the bolt and frame on the part it îs tighten and a thread on the mother part this soluțion may work may not

I've done this ones on a bike tour 😂 my bare tape came loose then I used a tube that went flat 😂😂😂

For what size thru axle? 12mm or 15mm? Is there one washer you recommend for either size?

Is it possible tp do this on the fork as well?

Have you ever test how much weight can carry?

Is this possible to do with the front qr wheel and a thru axle fork?

Excellent

Hello, I am wondering whether I can use the same M10 split washer for a fork with 15mm thru axle with blade space distance of 135mm. Or I need different size washer?

Very nice ghetto edition to the build, very conservative.

Great video and exactly what i was looking for. Thank you!

Do you know what all the tie downs in the top are for? Looks like maybe tying a tent or sleeping pad down? I bought it to bikepack, & happy I took the chance, thus bad is as nice as bags I paid 2-3 times more! If they came up Werth an internal bracing, I'd buy it

Nice idea! Clean it up a little and you could sell these on Etsy

My clips don't lock, loose as hell and rattle all over and no Velcro. idk if the specs were changed over the last 2 years. wish i would have got the other ones. overall they work ok other then worrying if they are going to fall off.

Super like ...!!! 💪💪💪

I use blue loctite, also my bike shop removes anything for free

Merci Canada M.T.L Québec love

I will send this to Henry; because our bags leak badly. I like your mudflaps. Thankyou for sharing this: back roller classics , which I was told are a spinoff of kayak bags; are $200.

MTB "approved" ?

Muchas gracias por compartir esas ideas pero si pudieras poner los enlaces en donde compraste los accesorios seria mucho mas facil poner en nuestros equipos tus ideas, gracias

That is slick! Thanks for posting.....

Two weeks before a long trip, service your square taper BB properly. Ride it a hundred miles, then readjust it. Ride it loaded a couple of times and recheck that everything is still working properly and torqued up. Take your trip, but don't bother packing all those tools. The odds of having any issue with your BB for the next 4,000 miles are minuscule, so carrying them is unnecessary. You're more likely to experience a broken fork or a taco'd wheel, and you're not carrying spares of those.

can you show the installation on a bike?

I rode 4000 miles On a loaded tour bike with this method. No issues whatsoever. Just make sure you don't lose your washers when you change a flat.

Wanting to use a quick release wheel on a boost. This should work, right?

Useful so I can use my indoor trainer qr wheel in through axle frame

I'm just seeing this, and I made a similar cage from a protein powder tub- I cut it in half the tall way, then cut an insert out of the other half and used contact cement to glue the 2 halves together. Then I cut notches through the whole thing to hold my bag in place. Works really well and is super strong.
