The Tiny Bar Bag is a collaboration with Tunitas Creative Soft Goods Design Studio. It's simply a very small bag for carrying the absolute minimum of what one might need. The idea came to me because my mid week rides are typically twenty miles or shorter. I like the feeling of riding an unladen bike, but I of course need to carry my bulky wallet and keys that don't feel great in my pants pockets when I'm riding. I wanted to create an almost comically small bag for the novelty of it, but also to be able to carry those annoying items while keeping them accessible and within reach.
The Tiny Bar Bag is not limited to use as a bar bag, or to use for wallet and keys. It is so small that it can be mounted in plenty of locations depending on your bike, or it can be used off the bike altogether. It can be used to fit a tube or two, and some tools. It can be used as a saddle bag when used with a touring saddle (like Brooks) with loops to mount the two straps. I tested this and it worked great. It can be mounted under the top tube or behind the head tube or under the seat cluster or wherever you can imagine it mounted, within reason. It can be mounted to the outside of a Wald basket. I've used it to carry stickers and have them accessible for giving out on a Calling in Sick group ride. Someone could stuff a bunch of gels in it for easy access to slurp them down periodically while riding.
Some factoids and info:
The zipper makes an "L" so the front of the bag folds down, allowing easier and wider access to the compartment.
It is so small that it can be mounted behind the cable housing, making it great for mountain bikes.
It can also be mounted in front of the housing
It works great with bikes with "out front" style computer mounts
Dimensions: 5" wide by 3" tall by 3" deep
Color options: purple, green, and teal w beige
Comes with two velcro straps to mount to the handlebar. Does not come with a third stabilizer cord/strap because in most cases it won't be needed, however the bag has a loop sewn into the back so you can add a tertiary stability strap if you want to.
