Hello Hello Hello,
So I am almost done with my new motorcycle build and I am making a one sided saddle bag for it. But not your typical saddle bag, it will be mostly a rolltop backpack which clips to the side. Very rugged. The bike itself is just black with bare metal, also a rugged look.
My issue was locking the saddlebags to stop people from, well, stealing what's in them.
"usual" leather locks (Turn Locks, Amiet Locks, etc.) are out of the question as they would give up pretty easily.
For now these are my two ideas:
- Double pull zipper with a lock. Maybe do a wrapped lock like Philip on his new weekender
- Don't lock it and let people steal what they want.
Suggestions, Ideas are welcome :)
@Fadi I'd like to see someone make a bag where there is a wire cable for security that has been wrapped and stitched around the outside flap similar to edge binding or piping in a way. Perhaps 2mm steel cable.
