Subject: Bento Box/Spare Tire Box for wide frame?

Someone posted a brand on here recently, but I can't find the thread. I have a Specialized Tri bike with a thicker frame. Most bento noxes have narrow straps. Can anyone suggest a brand with wider straps on a bento box and spare tube box?

The straps on the the Rocket Pocket (and the XL version) by XLab are very long and I would imagine fit around any frame (they are so long I cut off some material to make it easier to install). I have both the regular and the XL version. Nice quality bags. XLab also has a square shaped bag like a traditional bento box that looks from pictures to share the extra long straps of the rocket pocket.

+1. I'm a big fan. Bought the Speedpack 480D for my Shiv and it's been great. Can also install on my road bike for century rides. Big improvement over my Bento Box.
