I think the Old French builders would call that a decaleur. I am not French, and the bike is not a French style bike, but I guess decaleur is still a good name for it. The bag is an Ortlieb and it clicks onto an Ortlieb handlebar mount that has had part of it removed so it can bolt to a plate on the decaleur. The front rack has a flat frame on top that I never used in thirteen years so I decided to move the bag down and use it. It cleans up the handlebars. The frame is 60.5 cm.
