I dunno, doesn't seem like a big concern to me. I made one for the front wheel of my 3 speed a couple of years back - a leather piece connected with a small bolt rather than a snap, but same idea. It's never gotten snagged in a way that would stress it and unsnap the ends. It bounces around a little (mostly because of the oil filler spring clip) and makes a nice sort of sound while i ride, and the front hub stays shiny. -- Bill Connell St. Paul, MN -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
