Are there any velcro straps that hold the cable neatly when not being used to secure a bike?

No they aren't. I pass one loop through the other & put mine in my basket so it isn't a problem, and toss over my bars for short hops. But after initially using an old shoe string (which worked & I'm cheap) I got a small velcro strap for it & have to admit the shoelace & now the strap have proved helpful on occasion. I will say I did look at another cable that had a velcro strap but didn't buy it because of the price & for what I paid for the strap I eventually picked up I still saved and I'm really happy with what I have. But like I said, I'm cheap (my master "u-lock" has to be over 15, maybe 20, years old). No they aren't.

I bought and used these velcro straps and am very happy with them. Softride 26260 Hook and Loop Soft Wrap - Pack of 4. Unfortunately they are out of stock right now, but this does happen from time to time. They usually return to stock pretty quickly.

Have not seen one. Bought adapter bars (not sure if they are Thule) for wife daughter bikes. And it worked well. Would not attempt as I see to transport without a support. Lose your bike, cause accident? Not worth it.

No..but you can velcro the Anchor to the back right above the back slot for cables. You can get velcro strips for $1.

+They have hooks on both ends. I secured it to my handlebars with the soft straps also sold here, then no danger of scratching the bars or tank I don't think I would personally cut the strap off as I just use that left over strap to wrap and tie it to the tightened trap so it doesn't flap in the wind and also looks more secure.

I would think so. It attaches to the crossbar between the handle bars with plastic straps. The straps don't work that great and kept coming undone so we got rid of them and just use zip ties to keep it on. If you used zip ties you wouldn't have to snug it super tight to the cross bar which would give you some room for the cables. Hope that helps.

I usually have somebody else help me hold the handle bars for more assurance. I have not used straps while using this.

Hi, Vickie: bound to one side of the bottle holder are two sets of velcro straps close together. One naturally straps around the frame tube (vertical). The other naturally straps around the handlebar stalk (horizontal). They secure very well, though the holder tends to flop a little. But unless your bottle is two feet high or you do hardcore BMX on your bike -- you should have no problems. Just for fun I bought an 18-inch velcro strap to further secure the bottom of the holder to the frame tube. This holder is easy to detach and take along when you must leave your bike for a long time.

No straps at all. This is a small bag for attachment to the bicycle handle bars.

There is a small shock cord at the bottom that can be wrapped around the bike frame. Also, they would not flop much since the side against the bike frame is the thick outside part of the bag...just unfolded. This gives the panniers some stiffness.

Yes. It is basically just a basket with 2 straps (not attached to basket) to attach to the handlebars. Any zip tie would work, as well, if a strap breaks or is lost.

We run a 3/8" thick bike cable lock thru the handle and both legs and lock that to our rig chassis. While not the greatest solution it gives us enough security to leave for a hike etc. We do not leave it out after sun-set.

Emil, it does come with a stabilizing strap. I also recommend the Velcro straps to stabilize your bicycle's front wheel to the frame. Keeps your handlebars from turning and bunging up your vehicle.

Not sure what bike ties are. The velcro strips are very flexible and could be cut easily.

The mount has a Velcro strap. You can attach it to the bike in one of the bottle cage areas or use the zip ties that come with it to mount it anywhere on the bike.

There are two options: two belt-like straps to fasten to the top of the rack, and two straps on the inside side of each bag to velcro to the lower/side part of the rack. I find that these options are plenty for securing the bags. I hope that helps!

Hi, I used small black zip ties to secure it to my bike. I am extremely happy with this cycle computer, but there is a learning curve for sure.R,Travis Reep

I never had any problems with that. The clamps are rubberized a bit, and if you rack the bike properly it's a very tight fit. The only way I could imagine damage happening would be due to friction if the cables were rubbed side to side, but I don't think that happens - again, it's a firm, flat hold. I suppose if you somehow racked it with the two cables pitched toward each other with one on top of the other they could rub each other between the grips, but that would be a flaw in how the bike was racked, not the rack itself.
