@plactagonic@f.cz asks:

I just “sent order” for custom made full frame bag. *

Q7. Has anyone had any experience with custom made bike bags? Are they what you wanted or you would buy something off the shelf?

• It is more a friend of a friend who does sawing for fun and reclames material from all over the place and it is first time she will do something like this.

@Amgine@mamot.fr asks about rolling resistance:

Q6.

• Any lay-person resources to learn more?
• Is larger diameter generally better?
• Why is the standard #bicycle #wheel 700c / 26” ?
• W/gyroscopic forces, the turning CoE moves forward of the wheel centre, even > r (e.g. the demise of delta motor trike.) Is this greater w/larger diameter?
• Is this a factor in drive wheel vs steering wheel? I.e. if they must be different, which should be larger?
