    We just had a customer "invent" an awesome decaleur for our Giles Berthouds, not as clunky as the ones in the photo and not as expensive. Here is the bike hermit blog post, with photos

    let me know what you think, I am sure I can hook you up with a set if you are interested

    oops, just spoke to the bike hermit and he said you still need the piece that bolts to the handlebar to use the ones we have on our bikes. Velo Orange also makes a decaleur but only works on threadless stem, Berthoud makes either style and I can help you out there as well.

    I guess we're going to the LBS. My son wanted to just velcro it onto his bike. LOL.

    Oh boy, I hope it is stable enough that way. There are such awesome, awesome bags. The one I use has over 4,000 miles on it.

    And duct tape is also RIGHT OUT!
    Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.
