Hey RouteWerks guys... just a heads up that you're being directly ripped-off by a website called "kssbetti.com". Facebook ads and a full online listing using your images, video and descriptions. I can PM you the link if you want. I'm not posting it here because it's bull***** and I don't want to give them extra pageviews.

Started a month ago, we have been reporting them to Facebook etc. When they get removed they just launch a new website. I don’t think they are going to actually ship anything to anybody. Apparently this is relatively common for successful Kickstarter campaigns.

My bag arrived today!!! Looks super nice. It’s compact for sure, but the details are well done. Can’t wait to ride with it.

Received my bag! Had a shipping problem and got a lot of help from Thor @ Route Werks to get the issue sorted out.

The bag itself is awesome and handles my headlight & gopro great on the extensions. Plenty of room inside for phone, keys, wallet, and snacks. The friendly and communicative customer service I got made this entire experience even better. I'll be recommending them to everyone I know.

Also really good for stickers, too.

I like mine too, even though I haven’t even mounted it yet! Seems well thought out, which, of course, is why we bought them in the first place.

Two questions to anyone:

Wonder why no front pocket. Seems to be an inexpensive and functional way to add volume without bulk.

I see various uses for the elastic cord on top, but does the cord on the bottom have intended uses other that holding the side pocket flaps?

This is my first handlebar bag, so I have no previous experience to compare it to, but I like this one a lot. It's very well built, and I like the fact that I can easily move it to another bike (I bought the kit with 2 bike mounts). The lid does rattle a bit over sharp bumps, which doesn't bother me at all. I found the interior volume to be smaller than I expected, but it's fine for fitting my rolled up windbreaker jacket and some snacks.

the cord on the bottom is just to hold the pocket flaps down.

We considered a front pocket but in the end we decided to leave it off of the launch version. We are considering making a bigger "touring" size with a bigger main compartment, that might also get a front pocket.

Any idea when they might be back in stock?

I think it may be a month before we have more bags.

Mine has been great so far, easy to pop open, grab a bite or take some photos. Wish it were bigger.

Only issue is when it’s locked into place it still has a decent amount of up and down movement such that it makes a racket on trails. Wish it would lock more firmly into place.

Russ at PLP posted a review of your bag. He liked it, just wished it was a little bigger.

Anyone else pick up one of these?

Seems like good stuff
