Update on the workshop:

I recently moved to a new workshop in Delft! I am still in the process of reorganizing and setting up the space. Now that I’m no longer working from my student room anymore, I can finally have people over!

Feel free to stop by, but send me a message first… Then I can make coffee!

Step 1: Choose your Custom

Every Frame Bag is custom and made to order, making it impossible to show you the product before the purchase. 
Using our Double Decker Frame Bag Configurator, you can play with many different color composition before you commit to buying a bag.
(New update release soon)

Step 2: Design & Engineering

It does not matter if you are into cycle touring, adventure touring, gravel biking or any (un)supported bikepacking adventures,
we take our time to sit at the drawing table.

Every custom bikepacking bag is designed using our FrameInsight process in order to obtain the frame measurements.

Step 2.5: Place your order

As much as I appreciate it, please stop giving money without knowing what you’re buying… (Go back to step 1 & 2)

Please do not place an order until all dimensions, layout, color scheme, and features of your frame bag are clear to both you and me…

Step 3: Production Process

After obtaining the measurements and finalizing the design, all unique pattern parts go through a nesting algorithm to achieve the most efficient fabric use as possible.

The parts are lasercut to increase production speed, efficiency, and precision. From this point, I will begin sewing and assembling
your Custom Frame Bag!

I am Mickey, the designer and maker behind all the Custom Bikepacking Bags.

Merit Gear is the environment for me to develop, prototype, and test my selfmade gear.
It is the embodiment of my interest for everything making, manufacturing processes, programming, and sports.

I love sharing the things I make with other people, so if you would like to see more of my creations and prototypes that tread the fine line between brilliance and madness.
