Cascade designs are the other US company I think. I haven't heard of any UK companies though. Maybe get happy with a sewing machine?

I think you're thinking of Carousel Design Works.

carousel design works and epic designs alaska both make super high quality bags, with osme standard designs or custom. i have 4 epic designs bags, 2 for racks, they sit on top and sinch down dry bags, and a handlebar system and a sea bag that may end up in the next issue...keep your eyes peeled

the handlebar system was $75, the seat bag $110. quality is excellent.

Both makes of bags look superb. If I was looking at doing any touring, I'd get a bike-worth.

Shame the exchange rate has tanked, isn't it?

I have a Carosel frame bag from Jeff for the Solitude and might get a bar system and seat bag from Eric at Epic.

Pretty good bits of kit for light weight trips and even normal biking as you can take 2 bottles and extra kit with no camelbak 🙂
