Where can I buy a top tube bag or bento box that fits screw mounts?

Two wheels trading might still have some Momsen boxes? Pretty sure they use mounting screws.

 

I have a Specialized rubber one. Send me a PM and we can take it further.

Not sure what bike you are putting this on. But just a heads up - I bought one for a Farr frame and the hole locations in the top tube bag was way off. It pushed into the stem so much so that I had to drill new holes. 

Dont know what the others look like inside but ive had a look at the Restrap ones and they have two different sets of mounting holes so maybe there are different standards? Anyway…if you have a short wolftooth B-rad lying around this is also an easy fix. But ja, i wouldnt call my wifes Farr gravel bike the most polished thing ive ever built. Had to shave off a few mm on a TRP spyre rear calliper so it would fit right and the amount if resistance in the threads of the alu thru-axles into the steel made me nervous the first few times.

Ja, not very confidence inspiring when a brand makes a bag for their frame and gets it wrong ????

 

But the fix was easy, just drilled new holes in the base of the bag, used some washers, worked well without having to use rails and all sorts. 
 

Seems like Farr’s products aren’t always the most thought through…. Good ideas, but less than amazing execution.
