Industrial designer and RISD professor Justin Sirotin founded Route Werks, a company that designs bicycle accessories. Their Handlebar Bag, which we covered here, is a popular offering. After getting feedback from customers, the Rhode-Island-based company learned that a larger version would be welcome. They subsequently designed this larger version, the Big Handlebar Bag.
With a 6-liter capacity, the new offering is big enough to carry an SLR or a four-pack of tallboys. Smaller items can be stowed within the configurable storage inserts. Up top are three quick-release "tech mounts" (versus the one on the original version), which allow you to easily attach a smartphone, GoPro, Garmin unit, et cetera.
The Big Handlebar Bag has been killing it on Kickstarter, blowing past the company's $40,000 target in just four hours. At press time they'd passed $150K, with 17 days left to pledge. Buy-in starts at $165.

This looks great and functional. I believe there should be no problems producing this bag.
