Plus the 2 metal rods are part of my Blaze Saddle bags, I only use them to and from work , never out on a ride. Better than carrying all those firecopy tapes back and forth to work in a rucksack .
Nice work ,Simon! The rods concerned me until you explained. Tell me it's a camera angle in the one photo & not a used tire mounted on the back w/ the bags (LOL)!
