Makeshifter The Hangdown

USD $95

The Hangdown impresses with its simplicity and versatility. This single-compartment pouch is a perfect by itself for day rides, or for adding a little extra volume to your bike camping setup. Attach to handlebars, another bag, any rack, your belt, inside your frame, on a basket–follow your heart! Get weird with it! Holds a layer, lights, snack, tools. Get a pair and use them as mini-pannier bags, then please please please get two small puppies and carry the puppies in them and send me a picture of it.

There are three year-round colorways for the Hangdown, and an occasional 4th color that rotates seasonally.
