About this piece

The Barjam brackets with option of carbon fiber bar (as shown). This does not include the harness and voile straps. The BarJam is a lightweight, exceptionally stable bikepacking harness that protects your brake, shifter, and dropper cables. The 2.0 version of this harness increased the strength of the brackets to an ultimate load of 728 lbf! (without breaking, brackets rotated on handlebar instead). Designed to excel on rough singletrack the machined 6061 aluminum bolt-on brackets extend your drybag out and downwards, past your cables. Voile straps are used for a reliable and slip-free way to secure your dry bag against the carbon fiber bar. 6061 aluminum bracket options for 35.0 mm handlebars and use with metal shims for 31.8 mm handlebars.

About the artist

Greg Hardy is a medical research engineer with a PhD who started Rockgeist in Asheville in 2014 because he loved riding bikes and camping and wanted to work with his hands. The name is German for spirit of the rock — Greg learned to sew while living in Germany. Their PhotoFit process put them on the bikepacking map: customers send in a strategic photo of their bike's front triangle and Rockgeist builds the frame bag from that, no in-person fitting required.
