Hello all

I wanted to share one thing I've discovered I think would be useful.

My bike looks like this:

When I go to work, or when I go out, it's parked outside in broad view of people. Lots of pick pocket. Lots of casual thieves.

I've created an under bag to put some of my valuable stuff:

You can see it's hidden below the brown bag, which would be empty and the main focus for thieves.

I tried it for few days and my power bank has been protected from rain and from thieves so far, even thought staying out all day (I covered with rain cover only)


I'm planning to add a bigger bag below to be able to put permanently the rain cover, screwdriver, rain trousers and few more bits! No need to carry a backpack anymore and to worry about anything!

Do you also do something like this? If not, time to consider ;)
