If you have time come round to polo for a chat and to hang out if you want. Introduce your self everyone is friendly, I'm sure someone will even lend you a bike if you fancy a game.

Cavendish is http://cavendishcycles.wordpress.com - they have a bagaboo order coming in in the next few weeks.

spotted some of their bags in the art shop on shoreditch high street a few weeks ago, also somewhere else which escapes me right now...

i saw a bunch of manhattan portage around in nyc when i was there recently.

(i think they look a bit... budget. sorry.)

Doesn't the bag shop on Charing Cross Road (opposite the Astoria) carry them?

this s very nice, if i find the way ro reach that place i ll be there, thanks.
110 punds its too much for my pocket...

just as a quick note I've had a Crumpler Original Seed for nearly a year now and its holding up well. Seems really well built and has some nice features !

+1 Crumpler.

I have a Crumpler courier bag and a camera bag. they're both very strong and good.

crumpler have a store here.

I have a small crumpler and a large chrome. both work great, but I think I want to get something with two straps for longer rides - my back begins to hurt if I go any significant distance with a one-shoulder bag. Not that that helps you find a place to buy one!

Condor's usually got a good selection.

bit late in the day now but...
map of a few of the places mentioned.

If youre thinking about bagaboo ( www.bagaboo.hu ) you can always custom order direct from him. Minimal is a great guy, and all his stuff is priced in euros, which'll save you paying inflated london prices..

Theyve also got a dealer in milan:
