I am looking to buy a rackless handlebar bag such as the Outer Shell Drawcord Handlebar Bag or Ruthworks Brevet or Micah. Other brands could be of interest too. Preferably in a darker muted color.

Please let me know off list if you have something for sale.

I don't have one for sale, but I'd also look into the Jack Supply (local for me in PDX) Slugger or Little Slugger. I just got a Slugger and it's great.

That looks quite appealing thanks. In this case I should have included that "rando style" opening = towards the rider, is a required criteria for this bag purchase.

I don't have one for sale, but I can recommend the Outershell bag. It works really well, easy on and off, not too restrictive of hand positions, very lightweight.

My wife and I can highly recommend the Swift Industries' Paloma Handlebar Bag:

https://builtbyswift.com/shop/paloma-handlebar-bag-2021/

Used it for cyclo-touring as well as brevets (including PBP!). Well constructed and easy-on, easy-off. The bag mates up to and clicks onto either the Rixen and Kaul or Ortlieb Klickfix adapters. Good luck,

Jeff

I have a Swift Industries Paloma in a nice two-color scheme (dark olive green with a dark orange front pocket) that's been on 2 rides. Let me know if you're interested.
