To make creating custom frame bags with the perfect fit even easier, Australia-based Curve Cycling just launched Bagmaker Drawings for all of their frames. We reached out to Curve to learn more about this new offering…

At Curve, we create adventure-ready bikes. Many of our customers buy Curve bikes to tackle bucket-list adventures. Whether it’s racing the Tour Divide or Race to the Rock, or slowly touring across the US, Curve is ready to tool-up customers to get the job done. Storage for the long haul is a key concern for many of our customers. Naturally, we get a lot of questions about which bags will fit our frames, and we also often get approached by bag makers about frame dimensions for custom frame bags.

There are a huge variety of high-quality custom frame bag options these days. New makers appear on the scene every week. Since we can’t keep a database of all the bags that will fit our frames, we created a series of Bagmaker Drawings for the range of bikes we regularly take out on adventures that prompt the need for extra storage space other than just water bottles. Curve bikes are made with storage in mind – our main triangles are deliberately large to allow the most flexibility when it comes to storage. As an example, the Curve GMX+ allows three large bottles to be mounted to the main triangle, all while carrying a full-sized frame bag – even for a small-sized frame.

Our Bagmaker Drawings make the process of creating a custom frame bag quick and accurate for everyone involved. Customers can easily check the dimensions and compare them to the bag they’ve been eyeing, and custom bag makers can use the drawings to create a 1:1 template for their pattern to ensure a perfect fit.

Aside from custom bags, plenty of off-the-shelf frame bags are available on the market. Our Bagmaker Drawings include all the dimensions and specifications necessary to determine the correct fit needed for these bags, too.
