As well as Alpkit there's a few other reasonably priced ones.

I've seen some posts about a Russian business selling them on eBay but I can find the link. They were very cheap but could take a while to get here I think.

Santa brought me one!
Two pockets and map pocket,5 cm wide. £100
Used for weekends so far, Off to Scotland on Saturday for a proper test,
So far appears very well made, good quality materials - zips,fabric,velcro.
Take your time over the template and the fit is perfect.
But even on a large Fargo the capacity is not big.

Teetosugers - I have an alpkit one for my Whyte and I have a Revelate Designs for my scandal, they are both good bags...

Frame bags are better than panniers by miles.

The Revelate Designs seems made from more robust fabric.

If you want to have a look a mine I can dig them out for you to have a look at?
