    Hmm...bags that clip on to anything kind of worry me. I have ergobars, so they're flat on top and I generally end up zip-tying everything to them. It's a totally high tech solution.

    I'm looking for a handlebar bag, though, and that one seems to be the perfect size. Do you think it would work on bars that are slightly differently shaped? or should I just bribe jobob with ho ho's to carry my spare gear for me?

    it "clips" to either side of the stem.... so that part on most handlebars is round anyways.... i also have the bigger around ones (31.8 i think??????) mine are slightly flat were i hold them... but round where the stem holds them... and where this bag holder goes!

    and by using clip... let me amend... it SCREWS on! it goes around the bar.. either with or without the rubbyer stuff (hubby had to use something less thick than what they supplied... would have to aske him what!) that acts like a... uhm.... washer/griper... then you screw it one!

    i really need to take pics tonight for you guys!!!!!!!

    here's a link to my bars

    Here's a picture from above. I like that the bag stands out a bit from the bar itself, it didn't affect my computer attachment etc. As Cali mentioned, there is also a little clip on thing above where it attaches to the bar ( you can see the edge of my HRM which is attached to it) that you can have on or off depending on whether you need it. I'm sure CG will have better pics but I thought I'd show you this one while I had time.

    OK.... rather than bogging the thread down with a bunch of pics in case some are on dial up.... i made a page for those interested in more detailed pics of the holder and bag here! 7 pics.... so dial up will take a little bit to load!

    if you want any more pics of anything.... let me know!

    Wow! Cali! Great pics!

    Thanks for doing all those photos for us. Now I've got something more to add to my wish list, "things I don't really need, but want anyway cuz they're cool"
