Default Handlebar bag for a recumbent?

I've added a recumbent to the stable and miss having a bar bag that
clips on and off, The crossbar is half the diameter of a regular bar.
Wondering if there is a bag made for this; or a clean looking fix for my
standard quick-release bags. Thanks. harley

Ever hear of a Bento Bag?
Sits on the top tube and behind the head tube and velcro strips around
both.
What is the make and model and design (CWLP, SWB, LWB)?
A link to a manufacturer's page for the bicycle helps too.

You'll want something that works well with the recumbent fashion
sensibility, so try a canvas tote bag, a Ron Paul swag bag, or a
plastic shopping bag from Fry's Electronics. Rubber bands, small
bungee cords, or old brown shoelaces should provide the quick-release
functionality you seek while remaining true to form.

I remember when this group seldom got off topic and was a lot of help.
Looking for responses to my one day old question, I went down 600 posts
of many, many off topic subjects. Thanks for the suggestions; on my way
to buy some brown shoe laces. Thanks. h

Hey, I have three (3) recumbents with industrial hemp fabric seat pad
covers!

If you are not a part of the solution, you are a part of the precipitate.
