Pattern Zip top handlebar bag pattern
Last night I put together a quick pattern for this handlebar bag. It's designed to fit on an old cannondale wire frame front rack, but you could easily set it up as a hanging bag or build your own rack out of 1/4" aluminum rod.
I recommend using a thin foam as a stiffener and line each panel independently.

Raleigh Kodiak!!
What year is yours? I have a 1984 that I've taken on ~ten thousand miles of tours over the years... I've only ever seen one other Kodiak in person, outside Sundance foods in Eugene Oregon.
Very neat!

That's amazing! I'm not sure what year it is. How do you find out?

Under the bottom bracket you'll find the serial number, you can then find the year on this website
It's such an awesome bike... I recently got some new(er) light wheels and then rode a 300k the other week

Thats really neat. Thanks for sharing the project files too!
I wish I could still get hold of the rack too. Its simple and works with no clips to break

The rack really is quite easy to make. I built another one using 1/4" aluminum rod without too much issue.
