GUU-Watanabe shows this frontbag mount on their Flickr photostream. The bag sits on a small rack so this system of wood and straps is an alternative to the decaleur.

There are more pictures of the bag and bike in the photostream.

GUU_Watanabe has posted a few pictures of this extravagent bike on their photostream.

The owner spent a long time collecting classic components. Once he had the parts he had Toei build a new frame to hang his stash on.

Also: Check out the bikes pictured on the Toei english-language web page. I have never seen a front light mount like the one on the 1961 Bluebird.
