I’m looking to buy a handlebar bag for someone but it’s difficult to decide what capacity to go for, especially as I can’t realistically get to any shops at the moment. I reckon the 1.5l Restrap Canister would be big enough for a jacket, gloves, phone, inner tube etc and a bar or two and any extra capacity would be wasted - am I right?

I’d be interested to know what other people use and what they keep in their bags.

Ive just taken delivery of a 2l bag from here:

I think 1.5l will be small for the items you’ve mentioned.

For what it’s worth, the one I have took 12 days to arrive from Ukraine, it’s really well made and finished and is currently cheaper than I paid due to Black Friday.

Can't beat Cordel bags IMO.

Thanks for the suggestions, however I’ve just found a nice one from Rapha which looks perfect. The Cordel one looks great but is twice the price unfortunately.
