I wonder if something like this could cram up under those rear cages where I've got them right now, a more vertically oriented seatbaghttp://www.topeak.com/products/Bags/mondopack:

Thanks Nate , you posted that just as I started thinking the same thing, looking at Nelson's fargo.  This one has a lot of capacity:

With that steeply sloped top tub, this would be perfect on the diSSent.

I bet with four bottles (will add a king top cap), jersey pockets, and one pack like this, I'll be good to go (barring wildly variable weather.

The Revelate one is bigger yet...the wesite says 70-80 cu inches.  Not the 112 I calculated above.  If the Topeak one approaches the Revelate in price, I'd get the Relevate instead.

Looks like the Topeak is about 1/2 the price of the Revelate...
