Storage Problems
Difficult to fit in/pull out
Other solutions tend to restrict users to brand system tool sets by designing tools to fit perfectly together. Needed for the tight space where things must fit neatly.
Ari values of compatibility, we want to avoid restricting users to a system. Ari also doesn’t make our own accessories. Ari needs a more universally applicable solution.
Space
Determining the amount of space needed is depends on what a user needs to carry.
Interview Discoveries:
- Different rides call for different items
- Different users prefer all types of tools accross many brands
- You must provide a hinge point for the bag to bend when entering or exiting the frame.

Compartments
We could ensure that the hinge point exists by assigning everything a spot inside one large tube. However, that constricts the user to certain sizes of tools etc. Rather than do that it is better to use a compartment system which solves all three of problems.
- Gives the user the ability to quickly grab which bag(’s) they will take each ride. (food, inflation, mechanical, sunglasses etc.)
- Leaves the user free to put whatever they can fit in each bag.
- Provide a hinge point for the exit/entry.
