  • The Echo Handlebar Bag fits trimly under handlebars of all types. It’s a great day-ride companion and can even be used for ultralight bikepacking setups for those who dislike large handlebar bags.

    FEATURES = BENEFITS:

    • Two closures: front zipper and side roll = easy access via the zipper for smaller items, easy stuffing soft cargo via the roll closure

    • Fully padded structure = maintains shape when empty, protects contents

    • Internal padded phone pocket = protects your thousand-dollar pocket computer from other contents and prevents it from rattling on rough terrain

    • Wear patches at contact points = durability

    • Repositionable, replaceable straps = allows for greatest flexibility of install configurations and long-term serviceability

    • Built with weatherproof materials = your cargo is protected

    • Truly artisan-level design and build quality = beautiful gear that lasts with elevated function and reliability

    DISADVANTAGES:

    • Not 100% waterproof: built with weatherproof materials, but it is a sewn product, so in heavy downpours dampness may show at the seams

    • Craftsmanship like this doesn’t come cheap

  • Choose In-Stock or Build-to-Spec.

    IN-STOCK: I keep as much gear built and ready to ship as possible.

  • What I do, why I do it, and the way it’s done:

    • I’ve been working in the bicycle industry since 1997 and hand-building gear for bicycles since 2010. A lot has changed over the years, but what’s remained the same is my motivation. I’m still here, still innovating, still building, and still believing in American craftsmanship.

    • My process is human-scale and analog, not corporate and digital. I’m not intentionally a throwback; that's just the way life makes sense to me. I can’t help but push back on a modern age obsessed with technology, externalization, and efficiency at all costs… a world that increasingly feels inhuman. Working with my hands and conversing with my customers is good for me, good for customers, provides purpose, and supports my family. I count that as a win.

    If you feel like reading, here's a proper manifesto.
