Chris,
Which length bungee balls do you use? Seems the smallest I can find are the
6" variety. Like Zack I have used the Irish straps and they seem to work
well...but the bungee cord idea seems like it would be a quick on and off
set up. And like Zack the large saddle sack is where it's at.

I used old toe straps. They work great at holding the bag in place on the
rack.

All I could find on Amazon were 12" ones. And, I'd like to combine shipping
with the web/buckles.

Amazon has a big selection. Search bungee balls.

A bit tangential, but can anyone point me (with URL) to an online source
for multi-packs of 12" long (or longer, up to 18") bungee ball cords that
also sells 1.5" nylon webbing and cam buckles?
Last Dec I got a good deal on the latter from Sierra, but it seems that
they don't have the bungee balls
Another list member suggested using bungee balls--they're plastic spheres
with a bungee loop that comes out through one end. They work great; I put a
length of zip-tie at the other end and feed it through the slots at the
bottom of the saddlesack. This way I can attach and remove the sack in less

Deekun P,
I have always lashed my Saddlesack large. I've always done it with
zipties, but I am noticing that I've severely pulled the double-slots out
of shape. The Saddlesack Large is not currently on any bike.
I run the Saddlesack Medium on the Windsor. The rack didn't line up quite

Hi Patrick,
The leather straps were sitting in my spare straps box and were the perfect
length to allow the bag to sit flat on the mini rack and close to the
seatpost. Now that think about it, I guess toe clip straps would have
worked too. Interestingly, I carry Irish straps in the saddlesack
Patrick:
I used large zip ties, which won't cinch to as tight a radius as the
smaller ones will. Here's a recent picture from a s24o done yesterday:

I already had the leather straps. Any strap will do.

+1 for the leather straps under the bag to fix to the rack instead if zip ties.
I use Carradice leather straps which are thinner and more flexible than the
Acorn straps.
No sway whatsoever, even descending rough rocky trails as proven on the last
RBW S24O.
Additionally, if you have the sma
Anne, I'll use the short Irish straps threaded through the leather slots on the
bottom to attache it to the rack, not to strap it on by going over the whole
bag. Like the leather straps posted earlier with pics.

I have an SS Large on my main rig, but I have never lashed it down, it just
rides freely on top of the rack. I use a Nitto QR with it, so it's really
easy to take off if I want to. The only reason you need the rack there
is for a little extra support for the bag.The bag doesn't sway at
I'll second the zip-tie advice. I have the medium and just use 2 zip-ties
to steady it on the rear of the bag at the rack.

My Large Saddlesack is permanently on my bike. I was using zipties to
attach bag to rack, but some people say that the zipties damage the bag, so
currently it's only attached to the saddle, and it rests on the rack. I
need to figure out some new attachment solution.
I don't understand why one woul
