Re: here is my build - thoughts on luggage etc.
For your bar roll people with low bars have used those handlebar accessory extender thingies to raise the height of the bar harness away from the wheel. https://www.amazon.co.uk/jiele-Handlebar-Extender-Extension-Accessories/dp/B07HT3ZXZD/ref=sr_1_3_sspa?crid=2LTCSVZF8DXQU&dchild=1&keywords...

here is my build - thoughts on luggage etc.
