    Hi all,

    I’m hoping that someone can give me some help here. I go on long rides every weekend, 80-100 mile lumpy runs every week. I’m on my own, still not got around to going out in a group yet due to lockdown. So, I take plenty of energy bars and gels with me then I don’t have to stop and leave my bike unattended outside a shop.

    The downside is that my rear pockets hang down somewhat due to the stash in them. So I’m considering a bar bag. The only issue I potentially have is this. Both my winter bike and best bike have a K-Edge Garmin out front mount, with a Go Pro attachment underneath, and with a GoPro Hero 7 skeleton case mounted. Does anyone know if there is a bar bag available which I can use and still use the camera?

    thanks.

    There are so many of these

    There are so many of these available now I’d be supervised if you can’t find something.

    Else have you considered a top tube bag or even a small frame bag? (You can get side loader bottle cages for water bottle access)

    while bar bags do a good job for bike packing, they are a slightly weird choice for normal road bike rides as they negate the benefits of having a road bike tbh, in that they put a big lump of unaero bag at the front of the bike. Having said that, I doubt it makes much difference unless you’re racing so go for it (whatever works for you!)
