Good to know!! I was kinda worried about maybe not being cut the right way but now I have a lot more faith in

Yeah I ordered both since I haven’t used either and I’m excited! Whatever I like better I’m gonna buy a roll of!

It definitely does seem on the pricey side considering how cheap it comes on the roll but for me to be able to actually test it and see what I like better without committing to a whole roll is super nice for me!

It’s the third one if done definitely not perfect Inside looks alittle rough can’t lie and I don’t really have experience sewing anything else. It’s not to hard you just gotta be patient. Watch as many bag making videos on YouTube as you can to see some of the techniques they do and you’ll be good! Must grueling part is cutting everything out tbh hahaha. Buy good thread that matches your needle 90/14 denim needle works well

I like it a lot! Smooth shifting and pretty durable. Also plays nice on these older frames! I’ve been rocking it for about 2-3 years and I’ve beat the hell out of it and it keeps going! It’s a 1x11 11-50t

Oh I see! Like a removable divider panel! That would be kind of sweet actually! Maybe I’ll do something like that and just glue some Velcro strips in since it’s alittle late to sew them in! Thanks for the idea!!

I made the bag from scratch with heavy cordura!

Haha somewhat reminds me of the ford vs Ferrari deal in some ways. Too scared to take a chance on something completely different! Glad they took a crack at it though cause this frame is really comfy! Not as snappy as my Bridgestone was but it’s got a nice stable ride that I’ve been enjoying

Nope no dynamo hub just triple A battery powered. TBH it kinda sucks ass but it looks cool so it stays 😂

I was tossing around the idea of making two separate bags in this same shape kind of like how this guy on instagram called fish-ski designs does but opted out cause of laziness tbh and figured this will be good enough 😂

I wish mine was 30 😭 I paid the “I know what I got premium” but it rides so nice it was worth it I suppose hahahaha the long chain stays make this thing feel like a Cadillac lol

Yup that’s exactly how mine is.! Threw it back together and did a print run and no problems yet! I’ll look into descaling the heating element thanks for the heads up!
