Remember these?
Has been awhile since I've seen one, pretty handy for hike a bike, until of course all those top tubes started sloping down.
Does anyone remember what they called/marketed these as?

It looks like a carry all pouch that attatches to the seat tube and top tube. Don't know if they are still available. A fteend has one on his ancient diamonback. He stores his phone, wallet and snacks in it.

They are still available. There was a thread or two about these a month or so ago.

Title-less
some of them also made it so you could carry your bike like sling it on your shoulder to portage it around

They're great to have and I find that it makes shouldering and carrying the bike so much easier.

They went out of fashion about the same time as bum-bags (You Americans don't know how hilarious the name 'Fanny-pack' is over here).
Then again, 'Bum-bag'... Sounds like a tramp accessory, or something your gran might need to empty every so often.

Frame bag, that's the term I was looking for. Yeah if they have the padded sling it is so nice to use when carrying the bike...
