- This week, I'm building a Bicycle frame bag using X-Pac® VX21 olive fabric. It is a bag designed around the bicycle frame. You can carry things like a wallet, power bank batteries, energy bars, chocolate and even a water bag!
X-Pac® is a brand of Dimension-Polyant, the world leader in manufacturing advanced, high-quality sailcloth. You can visit their site here: www.x-pac.com

Thank you for watching the video! Please hit the LIKE button if you like my video. Thank you so much!
Your videos are so instructive. As a bikepacker who makes his my own gear, I've learned a lot. Plus I love how it teaches without words, and has soothing music-- and a cat!
Thank you so much for watching! Like yourself, I am still learning how to make my own gear too.
that is so impressive, to be able to watch the effort to craft quality product. Good work
Thank you so much for your kind words!
wow, that's some quality. on the tailoring just as one the filming, video editing and music choice. you have a great eye for aesthetics.
Great Video! I would love to see a more detailed video of how you do do the zipper hoods and ends! I did see the Short you made but I still want a more detailed video haha. thanks for the info!
Will show more detail on these in next video
Brilliant bag and a really lovely video. Looking forward to seeing more!
Thank you so much!
Very nice video, you’ve just got yourself a new saddler subscriber!
Maybe instead of using this much amount of clips, hammering the stitches as if it’s leather might help to mark the corners/edges. I’m gonna try with some vx42
Good idea!
Great videos! Thank you for the content!
Thank you so much for watching!
Another great video! Would love to see a tour of your workshop. Looks so handy! :)
Great idea! I will make a video of the workshop in near future! Thanks for your encouragement!
@@frenchescarthecraftsmaker Amazing! You’ve got an attention to a lot of details when it comes to tools / and handy quick patterns, it’s opening a whole new world of possibilities in my MYOG journey. Haha. Thanks for that :)
Quick question: do you use a respirator with your hot knife to avoid breathing the fumes? I want to get one but need to make some research.
Yes, you should try making your own! Quite fun and exciting see how a bag is transform from a piece of fabric!
I really enjoy watching your work. Keep it up!
Thank you very much for watching!
Very satisfying to watch and interesting as I’d like to build up to making similar items for myself. Subbed.
Thank you so much for watching the video and hope you have fun making your won bag.
Thank you very much for the video. It is really inspiring for me as I am trying to learn how to make my own bags.
I am a little bit confused though since the bag at the end seems to have two sides with zippers and a wall in between? Before it looks like the bag you are making has just one side with a zipper and no inner wall.
Is that intentional or am I missing something? It would be really helpful to see how an inner can be sewn into such a bag...
However, I really like your videos. Not only the craftmanship that you put into your work but also the style of filming, cut and music of your videos are really good!
I hope we can see more of these in the future. Thumbs Up!!!
Hi, thank you for watching the video. This bag has 2 sides, one deeper side and one flatter side. It is not intentionally as this is the way how this framebag was builded.
Hi! Great work! Which size thread do you use for outer panels (decorative seam around zipper)? Thanks!
I have been using Serafil 40 Tex 70 thread. There are very sturdy and and easy to sew.
Awesome work! Mind sharing where you got your fabric clamps and fabric patterning weights? Thanks!
Hi, thank you for watching the video. I bought the fabric clamps and weights from a industrial sewing machine shop when I was in Japan.
