hippy-
So then lift those hands from the keyboard, and dial their number!
- Sealed sewing
- Bright Inner fabric to see things easier
- Double zipper, to be able to open from both ends
- One (or better... two) inner velcro separators to make it tight for leg clearance
- Tricky velcro strap is located at the diagonal tube, between headtube and gear/brake cable ports, it should be 2cm wide as shown in my cardboard template bellow, you can see what I'm talking about in the second picture. Other important velcro straps are on both ends of zipper to give it a bit of tension so its easy to zip and unzip it.
- Covered cable entry on one side (mine was on left side, near headtube at the bottom, to feed a usb cable from the dinamo into the D1 outside, and then go inside to the power-bank in a sealed bag resting inside the framebag.
- Inner zipper pockets?
- Reflective stripes?
UKAussie flag?
Its also important to know wich headset feed bag that you are going to use, so the velcro straps of both framebag and feedbag doesn't interfere with their positions.. Either mail it to them so they can make sure that it works, or give it the exact measures...Or they just can make that too for you
After the reservation, create that cardboard template, and email it to them with everything you told them written on it and velcro strap positions and widths.

The guy from http://www.inuvik.es did both @CarlosBI and my framebag, but he's currently doing the Tour Divide with his wife and son.
There must be someone in the UK that knows how to sew layers of Xpac and velcro! Just give the correct measures, using a cardboard, and specify that it should not be wider than the frame tube, and with that velcro in the middle to secure both bag walls. Now that I've some experience with it, I would have asked for two of those internal velcros, to have 3 separate compartments, and those inward dragging points.
