Ok, pretty simple... Feedbags.

This last June on the TD, I used a set of feedbags that I made. The red ones on my bike. They were hastily put together and I wasn't able to put a feedbag in the middle as that was where my USBWerk was mounted. So I'm looking for thoughts on feedbags in conjunction with a gas tank.
Thoughts?

Those are pretty nifty.  Are they "saddlebagged" over the top tube and velcro-ed to the down tube?  I've only seen the chalk bag looking ones.
Are you looking to use the gas tank as extra storage or just easy to access storage?  It seems you have your gas tank covered with your feedbags.  But I'm a total newbe on this topic...

It would help to see more of what you've done, but yours appear to be generously sized, which I would have suggested. A guy I rode with briefly found some very inexpensive grab bags that were quite a bit larger than the Mountain Feed Bag. I was envious...

A dedicated outer sleeve for bear spray, full-height outer mesh pockets, hydration hose keeper and one-handed storm-proof closure would be on my wish list.

Maybe consider putting your USBwerk in the feedbag that sits on the top tube. Many of the feedbags have ability to run cord in and out of the bag.
