It varies depending on setup. Photo in first post is a 35L drybag. Used that setup in a 100 mile race, and the bag barely cleared the tire(fat bike). Used a 15L bag for a 300 mile race the next weekend and it was much more comfortable. I'm 6'3" ish, so my handlebar is high enough for the 35L to clear.

Realized I never posted a photo. Frankly, I think this system works better than the revelate harness.

Updated my handlebar roll a 'hair' for the Oregon Outback...

My Krampus in Outback mode by gabriel amadeus, on Flickr

Still just the 3 straps with pvc standoffs. Small bit of paracord around headtube. And a scrap of cowhide backed with a still/flexible sheet of abs plastic. I just used a tyvek ground sheet this trip (no tent) and oragamied pad/bag/puffy jacket into it to create a waterproof burrito.
