With just a strap around the upright, it just slides off the rack, pivoting around the upright. There is a slot in the bottom for a strap, but it does not line up well -- it's parallel to the line of the bike, so it would take twisting the strap around to go on the crossbar of the rack. Using the bottom strap in some fashion might be able to stabilize it.
The decaleur bolts to the bag and consists of two steel tubes going down from the top tube that bolts on. They slide down into receiving tubes on the rack. You really don't need anything else holding the bag on, but I still use the strap around the upright as well. Paul B.

Does the bag still attach to the base of the rack? I've never seen one of these in person & it's too grasp in the photos, but it sounds quite well thought out. dougP --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
