Carradice Hacks

inventive modifications and mounts for saddlebags

 

Saddlebag owners who don't have bag loops, who want a quick release, or who want to reposition their bags can buy a Carradice bag clamp, a Carradice SQR uplift or a Bagman rack to augment the stock mount.

Or they can come up with their own plan -

 

Paul Patterson fabricated this bracket. You can see some more on this bracket, and others, on Paul's Photobucket page.
Andrew Bonamici spent $2.00 at his local hardware store on this simple rack.

Dave J. makes it light and simple.

Dave zipties some rings to the dowel. Nuthin to it.

Sheldon Brown (of Harris Cyclery fame) has made this simple stand-off.
Robert Canon has invented a simple bag support

David's Fastex QR.

Andrew Marchant-Shapiro has created a very professional bag rack incorporating a Seat Sandwich
Nick Payne has developed a solid-looking system.
Mike Sherman has whipped up this pinned QR.
