Dunno, seems kind of dumb, though, and can't say that I've seen it here, outside of gravel rides or utility cycling. Now that I think about it, though, I'm pretty sure that I've seen Gaimon with a little bar bag on his IG/Strava/Youtube.
OK this makes the most sense. This has so be some sort of IG "influencer" thing.
I hope for all of your sakes that this trend doesn't catch on.
These are not commuters. They are newer riders with disc brake high end bikes, Rapha or some other high-end IG-kit, wearing skin suits or race clothing yet having this wonky bag in the front.
I've seen several of these riders taking selfies while riding in said above kit. I'm not on social media so trying to find out about this and what the deal is...
