Customer Project: Gridstop Waterproof Rolltop Handlebar Bag

I needed a handlebar bag that was in between the Revelate Pronghorn's medium and large bags. It needed to be large enough to fit my sleep system and spare layers for a bikepacking trip in the Ozarks. The outer needed to be durable enough for rocks and abrasion, and waterproofness was ideal for the rain. I made it semi-rectangular and ovalized to keep it closer to the handlebars, with the weight moreso over the wheel.

- Sewed together at the opening
