I want to know if the front Food Bag will sit on the bucket bracket and ultimately be used as a twin item.

I am trying to squeeze as much gear onto my porter and wanted to know if the above will work.

If I was to buy just the front bar with front arms then this item would only accommodate the Food bag.

However if I was to buy the Front bar bucket bracket and it can accommodate the Front Food bag as well it would help enormously with maximising what I can get on my carp porter.

Please can somebody let me know if the Front food bag and Front bar bucket bracket combination is a viable option?

Has anyone done this combo??
Cheers folks

Not quite what you asked for... But thought I'd chip in.

I use the bucket bracket, and then balance my Speero barrow bag (XL) on the top, in the same fashion I think you are describing.

Absolutely no issue.

I think he's asking if the barrow back will slide down over the bracket and sit on the bucket. Which to be fair is a great question

Should imagine it would be fine, it's still a standard width bar. And the arms are in the same place as the standard bracket.

Yes it is viable. I have the bucket bracket and the food bag. The food bag rests on the bucket. The only difference is the bucket bracket is a fair bit shorter than the standard one, so the top bar of the bracket doesn't go right to the top of the food bag sleeve.
