Peeps. So got a new XL HARDTACK from ANALOG CYCLES and made the dream frame bag for it, but i pissed up the scale so it ended up 5% too small. What an idiot. Yes. Im a morron. But im pretty damb good at making special bags (as long as i get the scale right;). You can see what i have been working on for the last two years here: www.rekkiworks.com

The last picture has all the dimensions on it so you can make sure its will fit your bike. The second to last picture is it laced onto my XL HARDTACK. Its been design to fit this XL HARDTACK with a Adventure Hydration 3L tank installed. It ended up 5% the wrong size (in all dimensions but not the width).
From looking at the HARDTACK geometry numbers this should be sweet for a L (but if you really wanted to you could squeeze it into a medium). Ive included a picture of it laced onto my XL HARDTACK to make it clear.
Re the 3l Adventure hydration tank: you dont have to have one installed. It just make more sense if you did. They rock by the way, permanently attached to my bike.

- Non drive side has two netting compartments, the netting is non stretch and quite rigid.
- Non drive side zipper pocket has double entry so you can open it at either end. Both zippers have rain covers for when closed.
- Inside the non drive side zipper pocket, like the netting, also two compartments (same size), the backing of this pocket is made with a stretch Dynema (branded) fabric.
