Hey! How's that roll bag holding it's shape? I put a liner in mine to firm it up.

It was getting a little squashed from using a bungee to secure it to my luggage rack. I took a heavy plastic bucket and cut the ends off to make it the same length as the bag, cut a slit down the length to open it up and riveted it to the leather. It seemed to have done the trick. They should sell a liner for it. My Dead Creek Cycles Bag - Whatcha Think?-photo125.jpgMy Dead Creek Cycles Bag - Whatcha Think?-photo659.jpg
So far, so good.

What a clever idea. Really like the edgy look of the triangular bag you just put on, too.

NICE fix! Sorta like a bikers friend bag with that hard liner in there. The Dead Creek bag also looks good and should wear in nicely.
