Posted May 3, 200717 yr comment_133926 Aftera search of almost a year, finally manage to get one last month (needed to be shipped to The Netherlands) and what happened today when i was carrying my bag? On off the straps broke off the bag :(
May 3, 200717 yr comment_133927 poekie Is it the 2006 bag pm me your address i have some brand new straps .I could not get on with them so i have after market straps on mine . They would only be stuck in my garage going to waste so if you want them there yours. Dave
May 4, 200717 yr comment_133946 im pretty sure that new straps wont do him any good, only the tab that connects to the bag ripped off. only way to fix that is to connect it again by sewing it back in or something!?!?!
May 4, 200717 yr Author comment_133955 Yeah thanks for the offer, but i think i try a sailmaker first in my area, hopefully he can make something out of it. Otherwise try the furniture thing Dave recommended. And if that doesn't work i think buy some IZZO straps or so......
May 4, 200717 yr comment_133956 The exact same thing happened to me. I took the piece that attaches to the bag off and ran the strap through the same ring as the main strap. I will take pics tonight and show you what I mean. Just have the guy sew up the hole and re-run the strap. I know it sucks though. Big time design flaw, but nothing to worry about.
May 8, 200717 yr comment_134240 Anyone more this problem? Exact same thing happened to my Tourstage bag a week ago.
May 8, 200717 yr comment_134245 The straps are fine with my 2005/6 stand bag. However, I ran into a problem with one of the two steel rods used to open and close the legs. One end of the rod pulled off of its holder when the disk washer came loose from tension in the two rods. Warning, do not slide the legs connector too close to top of the bag as it increases tension in the rods. This slider should be about mid-way as too low would prevent the legs from closing when you pick up the bag.
