  • I'll make this one compact, just 12" long, same as the rack top. Will tweak the end shapes though based on this tester. Should be enough to stuff a light jacket and some food. For overnight trips I've got that weird shaped black bag in the pics above.

  • I see. Very nice then.

    you could probably go a little taller still (and stiffen the whole thing a little with foam) and maybe hide the zipper a little for some resemblance of waterproofing?

  • True, it could be a couple of inches taller. Can always compress it with a bungee strap. I'll definitely put a larger zipper slide cover - didn't extend it enough on this proto.

    I've been thinking about foam but haven't found the right stuff and don't know what to search for. Something low density but stiff, 3-5mm would be ideal. Could maybe bodge it with some pieces of coroplast between the outer and liner but foam would be way nicer and easier to install.
