Bike Bag?

[alsina]

I bike a lot with a Brain Bag, but the weather may get pretty hot, and carrying a backpack on a bike on a hot day is not that great.
I would love a back pack with a removable clamp to fix it to my bike's handlebar. This way, click, my laptop is on the bike, click, I have a back pack when I arrive.
Why the handlebar and not the at the rear? well, Paris is Paris, and if you carry a lurid bag at the rear, you might well find it's no longer there when you arrive...

Paris! Sounds great to me!
Sadly the great variety of sizes and configurations of bicycles and their handle bars/brakes makes building one simple system pretty much impossible.
There are some very cool folding front baskets for bikes into which you might be able to drop your pack - check out Bike Nashbar or similar. Because they permanently attach to your bike, some of the technical difficulties of attachment are overcome.
A bien tot!
