Feed Bags for Bikepacking | My Honest Review & Upgrade

[@blue-wanderer4392]

I loved them, but after getting an integrated handlebar, I don't have real estate for them. They gave me some kind of cinema center feeling. You ride, you eat, you can see the beautiful nature without back pain. Yes reaching down to your bottles every time you want a slip, it makes you tired in the end of a long day.

Ha ha! Well noted. "kind of cinema center feeling."

Thank you for sharing your insights. Those bags sound really helpful. So far I have avoided them, because I value being aerodynamic. Additionally I always wear gloves and getting in and out of the bags seems more hazardous. I will reconsider.

Thanks for the feedback! Yes, these bags are not about aerodynamics at all. You might want to check out smaller options-they could be a good compromise.

Hey, thanks for the review and showing how you use those feed bags. as someone who has never tried them but is interested, I have two questions; - Do the feedbags get in the way when placing your hands on the handlebars? - what are those bad ass sunglasses? thanks!

Hey! Yes, they can get in the way a bit, especially since the handlebar bag also takes up space on the handlebars. This means you won’t be able to get a full grip close to the head tube. As for my glasses, they have added diopters. The brand is Demon, an Italian brand. I think they’re no longer being produced. Check it out www.demonsunglasses.com/
