Easy-Access On-Bike Storage: Industrial Designer Justin Sirotin's Route Werks Handlebar Bag
It's like a dashboard and glove compartment for your bike
By Rain Noe - September 28, 2020
The pain points for on-bike storage are manifold, and typically require compromise: Location, storage capacity and on-the-go accessibility all necessitate trade-offs. In an effort to maximize the utility of a handlebar bag while minimizing the hassles, industrial designer Justin Sirotin spent two years developing the Route Werks Handlebar Bag:

I'm digging the "dashboard" functionality and how easy it looks to pop the bag on and off via the cam lock. On top of that installation looks simple and straightforward, and the storage space seems plenty enough for your average day jaunt.
The Handlebar Bag is currently killing it on Kickstarter, with $90,710 on a $40,000 goal at press time. There's still 23 days left to pledge, and the $119 bag is expected to ship in January.

I’m a lapsed industrial designer. I was born in NYC and figured I’d die there, but a few years ago I abandoned New York to live on a farm in the countryside with my wife. We have six dogs.

Easy-Access On-Bike Storage: Industrial Designer Justin Sirotin's Route Werks Handlebar Bag
The handlebar packs look great but no room in my case.
I 3D designed, cut and folded these two (above and below bar) "coropacks" out of two pieces of coroplast to fit my bike.
Bike purists turn up their noses but i say function over form for me.
Lol, I love that's its compatible with a TNG Tricorder :p
