ABSTRACT:
A carrier bag for transporting small, portable articles along on a cycle is supported between the handlebars. Support is provided by a bent wire carrier mounted on the handlebar stem that includes a mounting loop adapted to surround the stem, two closely spaced, parallel segments extending forwardly from the loop, and a pair of sections that diverge laterally from the outer ends of the segments and support a pair of forwardly projecting tines. The bag has a pair of elongated channels formed in opposed lateral ends to receive the tines and a pair of fasteners spaced along its rearward surface to encircle and secure the divergent sections. The elongated channels and fasteners respectively inhibit lateral and forward displacement of the bag, thereby securing it in position. A pair of elongated, tension members extend between the lower edges of the opposed sides of the bag and eyelets formed at the front fork ends adjacent to the front axle to retain the bag against upward movement and complement the support provided by the forward carrier.
In an alternative embodiment, the elongated, tension members are used in the described manner, along with a pair of elongate straps, each of which have one end attached to one of a pair of spaced points on the upper portion of the bag and which wrap around the handlebar to effectuate a secure support for the bag.
