riding without box

[ORen]

Never used any boxes, don't intend to.

I carry daily : full gear (FF helmet, gloves, knee guards or pants, jacket with hard armour), rain coat, boots rain cover, freshening wet wipes, piece of clothe to wipe whatever.

 

I wear my gear and when I can't bring it with me I leave it at the bike, in a Pacsafe bag, locked to the engine crash bar or front wheel.

The rest goes in a small 8L Waterproof Komine bag that I strap to the pilion seat with a net strap. If I pillion someone, I use a tank bag instead.

 

Tank bags can be of all shapes and forms, and can be used as backpacks, I use ICON ones, a small and a big for "touring".

 

At the end of the day, without a box, I can show up for a job interview without anyone guessing I ride a bike. No crap with me, proper work clothes from head to toe. And I don't have a box

Hi O'Ren,

 

I didn't know you ride with your wardrobe . Where can I buy the Pacsafe bag and how much did you buy it for?

[ORen]

haha..hey, I don't have to tell you how much "crap" a geared up rider needs to carry around

I bought it at Sports Connection @ Shaw Tower, I can't remember the exact price, but if I'm not mistaken, something around S$100-130.

 

it's the Stuffsafe 80L from Pacsafe : http://www.pacsafe.com/www/index.php?_room=3&_action=detail&id=42

 

You can also get just the exomesh metallic net to put around any bag you carry around.

I suppose you don't ride to town or something to go shopping right?

 

'Cos in an unsecured public carpark, I can't imagine you leaving your helmet or Pacsafe on the bike. Neither can I imagine you lugging around an 80L bag with your helmet.
