Archie’s Grobag, Like a Bag-of-Holding For Bikes

The “Rosie” hip-pouch from Archie’s Grobags might be the most utility-dense bikers’ bag we have yet seen. Archie is a London-based fixed-gear rider as well as a cycle-bag designer (and sewer, we believe). And this bag shows the fixsters’ obsession with hanging nothing from either the frame or the rider’s body - it lets you carry just about everything you’d need for a day out.

Once looped onto your belt, you can load up the inside with cellphone, cash, a spare tube, tire levers, a multi-tool and any other (small and thin) items. On the outside you get a pair of Velcro loops for a pump and another couple of webbing straps on which to hang your lock (although the U-lock in the picture looks like one of those awful, lightweight and easy-to-break aluminum kinds). There’s even a place to clip a rear light, keeping one more thing off the frame.

The bags are ?45 (around $70) each. Archie’s site is down right now, but you can check out the full set of photos at Pedal Consumption.
