What are people using to space handlebar bag out from the bars? Just so I can still grab the bars on the tops.

Was looking at a bar extender thingy, but maybe over thinking it. Should some old cut up camp mat work?

The topeak frontloader comes with some awesome spacers... you might be able to find them as spares

I've tried cut up camping mats and some closed cell foam to make spacers but they ended up tearing pretty quickly.

I bought one of these because it comes with a couple of handy straps and some of the spacers https://backcountry.scot/product/revelate-designs-sweet-roll-jones-loop-bar-kit/

These spacers are made out of stiffer foam and seem to be laser cut or something so they don't end up ripping.

Both options unavailable unfortunately.

I've found restrap foam spacers that should do the job and won't break the bank.

My Revelate Harness has spacer blocks.
