Ibera triangle frame bags went on sale

[mlt34]

I was looking to pick up another Ibera triangle frame bag and I saw they are on sale for the lowest price I've ever seen them, $11.99 right now. They usually retail for at least $20 and the best I've ever been able to snag them for has been $15-$17.

A lot of people really like these bags as an economical way to carry in the front triangle a good amount of lithium, especially lipo bricks. Even some larger batteries fit nicely in these bags, including the notoriously large Ping packs. I shot this clip a year or two ago showing a 48V 10AH ping in the bag.

These Ibera bags aren't as big as the EM3EV bags and they aren't as bulletproof either, but for someone looking for a more affordable way to get your battery into the front triangle, these are a great way to go.

Here are a couple threads with some reviews, plus a photo illustrating the max of 8 6spacks that cal3thousand was able to stuff in one, though he says the zipper gets a little hard to close with that many packs, and 7 packs seems to be a better fit.

That's a really good deal. I've been using this bag for a while, and it's pretty decent.

Got me all excited, went through the whole process, ready to pay. BAM. We don't ship to your address. Bastards.

dang, that's a shame. The same bags are available on eBay but for an extra $7, plus I have no idea what shipping to australia is. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ibera-Bike-Triangle-Front-Frame-Tube-Bag-Large-Cycling-Black-NEW-IB-FB1-L-/171123593943?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27d7c2d2d7

Alternatively, I've used the following bag and it has held up pretty good on this bike for about 18 months and counting. It's $18 including international shipping: http://www.ebay.com/itm/896035-6-New-Force-Bike-Triangle-Frame-Bag-Bicycle-2-2L-Black-or-Grey-/201148265277?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item2ed55ef33d

So it's not as cheap as the one in the original post, but its the best one I've found with international shipping that doesn't gouge you.
