Compression bags are a great way to remove air from bulky items and especially useful for bikepacking where space is always a little limited, even if JILL is huge (15-52L).
This compression bag goes from 5.5L down to 1L depending on what you are stuffing into it. Make multiple bags with different colours to quickly identify which is which helps.
I hope to make more DIY videos for bikepacking gear through this year. Any questions please leave them in the comments on youtube and ill get back to you.

Hi Claire, if you download and open the files in a vector based software you should be able to read the measurements. There are quite a few free vector based softwares available.
Are you able to share the dimensions of the pieces? I don’t own a printer.
