Hi, I have an Orange Five Pro 2018 and I’m after a frame bag for inside the triangle - any recommendations to kind of bypass the suspension?
Custom is probably your best route and a decent bag maker will ask for measurements with your suspension fully extended and compressed and then make a bag to suit.
Straight cut designs made me a custom bag for my cutthroat (I know, not suspension!) and it's perfect.
Custom from https://www.beerbabe.co.uk/ourshop/cat_1613345-Frame-Packs.html with the added bonus it's all recycled.
I make all my own bags. So simple to do and all will fit perfectly.
All material, zips, velcro everything come from pro fabrics in the uk. Aim for Cordura or XPac material. As long as not mass producing any machine will work. I did treat myself to a new HD machine though. Trust me, you can do it.
Alternatively use Alpkit.
Beer babe is great - recommend her.
yes - another recommendation for Beer Babe here - made a great frame bag for me
A +1 for Ross (StraightCut Designs) here. I have a custom bolt in framebag for my Pipedream with matching top tube bag. His stuff is ace.
I'll add another recommendation for weecog, she made me a bag for my old Hightower, was a really easy process and arrived quickly. Well made and fitted perfectly, I'll be ordering another for my next bike.

Have a look at this, run one on my Santa Cruz and works well. Well made and a good price 👍
