Folding Bike carrying bags

Hi Fellow TF'ers!

Has anyone successfully patterned bags for Dahon folding bikes? Any tips to share?

Thanks in advance!

There are a ton of them on ebay and the prices seem like you would be hard pressed to make it worth your time to do your own.

FWIW, we use Downtube bags for both Downtube and West Marine folding bikes.

Sweet! Thanks all! I searched a while back and didn't find these options. For $50 bucks or less, yes, I'm not going to spend a couple of days in the sewing room!

Hi All!!

I thought I would post an update! Thanks to you guys, I am not frustrating myself with sewing bike bags! I ordered these on amazon and they are awesome! We have the Dahon Mariners and they fit great!

$27.00 each.....what a bargain!

Thanks again for your guidance!
