- For
- Confident-beginner cyclists who sew their own gear
- Worth noticing
- It offers both a cardboard tracing method and a measure-and-draft backup, with worksheets for frame measurements and cutting lists.
Field notes
The method starts with a cardboard frame trace and includes a measure-and-draft alternative; bag format depends on the bike and water-bottle clearance. The page specifies domestic-machine sewing, a 10–14-hour build estimate and materials costing about US$20–50, depending on fabric. It also describes a licence allowing makers to sell small batches of bags they sew, while prohibiting redistribution or resale of the PDF and pattern.
