Sometimes you don’t have the frame space, budget, or need for a full-size Alpha Custom Frame Bag. Sometimes the EDC Mini Frame Bag is enough! One of three sizes will fit almost any bike frame - see a printable PDF sizing template here.
FEATURES = BENEFITS:
Same materials and build quality as the Alpha Custom Frame Bag = long-term durability
Chunky molded zipper instead of basic coil zipper = longer lasting, easier to operate, smoother when dirty
Repositionable, trimmable straps = allows for greatest flexibility of install locations
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:
Smaller in volume: if you’re looking for a large frame bag, you need the Alpha Custom Frame Bag
Fewer features: compared to the Alpha Custom Frame Bag with its padded spine, organizational options, and true custom fit
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.
BUILD-TO-SPEC: Click here for current lead time. If nothing’s in stock or you want a different color, Build-to-Spec is an option. This costs a bit more because your gear isn’t built as part of a batch. Choose one or two colors at checkout. Available color swatches are shown in the photostream - in order shown, left to right: Black, Cayenne, Ocean Blue, Evergreen, Goldenrod, Coyote Brown, Dark Camo, Olive Green, Marigold, Matrix Gray, Slate Gray, Red, Electric Blue, Southwest Turquoise, Deep Purple, Blaze Orange, Lime Green.

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.
