      <title>New integrated light bags.</title>
      <link>http://www.blaqdesign.com/Pages/Content/Post.aspx?&amp;postId=204</link>
      <description>&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;We've been working on this for a long time, and we couldn't keep you waiting any longer.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;a rel="[E.L. Messenger Bag]" href="http://www.blaqdesign.com/Images/News/Spring_2013/EL_800px_april_2013.gif" title="E.L. Messenger Bag" class="lightwindow"&gt;&lt;img style="vertical-align: middle;" src="http://www.blaqdesign.com/Images/News/Spring_2013/EL_450px_april_2013.gif" alt="CE.L. Messenger Bag" width="450" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;Our integrated E.L. lights run on twin AA batteries and can flash for 60 hours, they are&lt;br /&gt;incredibly bright at night. Right now we're offering single strips in aqua, white, red, blue &lt;br /&gt;and green on our&amp;nbsp;entire line of &lt;a href="http://www.blaqdesign.com/Pages/Product/Category.aspx?&amp;amp;categoryId=7" target="_blank"&gt;Messenger bags&lt;/a&gt;. Panniers, backpacks will be available&lt;br /&gt;in the near future and they can be integrated into cargo bike canopies on request.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;We've been working with and testing Electro-Luminecent tape since integrating it into&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;the panniers on Rob Tsunehiro and Silas Beebe's &lt;a href="http://oregonmanifest.com/constructor/tsunehiro-cycles-and-silas-beebeid/"&gt;2011 Oregon manifest&lt;/a&gt; bike. They've&lt;br /&gt;been sneaking out in bags for awhile now, most recently on the concept Porteur bag for&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://breadwinnercycles.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Breadwinner's&lt;/a&gt; Arbor Lodge. It's the best active safety feature we could add to our bags.&lt;br /&gt;Paired with passive reflective material and a tail light for your bike you can always count&lt;br /&gt;on being as visible as possible at night.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Cobra buckle options</title>
      <link>http://www.blaqdesign.com/Pages/Content/Post.aspx?&amp;postId=202</link>
      <description>&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;Cobra buckle's are now standard hardware for all &lt;a href="http://www.blaqdesign.com/Pages/Product/Category.aspx?&amp;amp;categoryId=7" target="_blank"&gt;Messenger bags&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;We set out to find a buckle that spoke to the quality of our bags and found the perfect match.&lt;br /&gt;Made in Austria, sustainably and in-house to exacting standards.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We've been testing them out on bags for over a year now, and using them for the last 3&lt;br /&gt;on our Last belts. We can't overstate how much we love them, no hardware comes close to&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;the form or function of these buckcles. Stop by the shop and test ride a bag if you can!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: left;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
