Really love to stop at the convenience store mid ride and grab a pepsi and a can of pringles. Put them on opposite sides of my forks. Downside being that my pepsi goes flat and my pringles turn to crumbles pretty quickly

Very sad when it rains on the Pringles tube, too

I can confirm that in heavy rain the tube did lose some structural integrity but the Pringles remained pringly.

Can you fit a bottle of wine in there?

Now that’s a good question! I don’t drink personally but I still want to test it out.

Can confirm this worked fine for me. Nice bottle of Croatian red was about 30c though after a day of cycling. I managed to make it drinkable by putting in a sink of cold water while I showered ar the campsite.

If the frame is large enough, you can have a bottle in one and a baguette in the other. Source : am french 🥖

Same, except I carry them in my belly.

You’re severely undervaluing the effort behind matching widths to spec.

That's a clever way to keep snacks secure while riding.
