This is my new cycle – an Axon Rides e-folder.

I am looking for a casual bag that I can attach to either handlebars or seatpost (or seat), and usa for casual carrying of bits and pieces eg fish and chips on the way home.

If it was a Brompton at 3x the price, I could use their system.

I have a click-on Bikehut small (5l?) handlebar bag which is great for what it does, a traditional market trader over the shoulder fabric money bag, and a laptop backpack.

Does anyone have suggestions for something perhaps fabric which can be attached and unattached very easily to handlebars, seat or seatpost? 

Plan B may be to start looking for a lightweight front rack which does not interfere with the folding mechanism.

Thanks

It’s cheap and it hooks and unhooks easily. Maybe not the best, but good considering the low price.

I have a Shazam mini and love wizard works, but it’s a bit chicken and egg – the Shazam does look quite a lot like the bags Carradice have been making for ages – their innovation was arguably just using more modern fabrics.

(sorry – feeling a bit sensitive about IP after my wife found pirated copies of her hand painted stuff being sold on Shein, advertised using pictures scraped from her Etsy page).
