Branded versions of these are given away each year at the TDU village.

@CLP Would that be the FOCUS brand? Why are they called Jersey Bins?
Permalink Reply by CLP on June 25, 2012 at 22:08 they would indeed be FOCUS brand! not sure why they're called that. I don't really question the name when handy free stuff is being handed out :)
I had another one from a few years ago from one of the community rides (possibly the TDU) that was avanti plus branded, but that had the zip locky thing on the short end rather than the long end like the Focus ones.
The newer Focus ones were a tad shorter too, which fit in jersey pockets better :)
Permalink Reply by Gus K on June 25, 2012 at 23:41 They are made by Jersey Bins in the US. I got a quote on them and they were quite expensive for me to buy for Adelaide Cyclists in bulk so go for the freebies if you can find them.
They are great but the Focus ones are a bit thin for a modern smart phone but money, cards etc they're great.

Permalink Reply by CLP on June 27, 2012 at 11:24 mine fits my HTC Hero, bike parking swipe card, plus some ID (CA licence) :) it closes, but can sometimes be a struggle. I think that's partly due to the HTC Heros oddly shaped "chin" though

Using it to carry the battery for my bright helmet light, bought a few years ago before designs improved further.
Permalink Reply by Dstone on June 25, 2012 at 23:34 Had a close look at them a little while ago but didnt see the value. Like you said a fancy zip lock bag. We gave away swags of Avanti Branded ones a little while ago and like Clive said you could score a simillar product at TDU. We sold a few of these a little while ago http://www.lezyne.com/organizers#panel-8 they were nicely made
