Whats on the other end to secure to trl? Can 2 ft be cut off the loose end of strap when secured to trl.?

The other end has a flat style hook just like the one in the picture. Flat hooks go around the fork tube easier, which is the way I normally secure my bike. No need to cut the strap, Rachet allows you to get all the slack out before tighting. Best system around for the money.

+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.

You need the 4 footer. The tie-down needs to be at least few inches longer than the distance from boat to trailer to allow you to attach the hooks and pull the strap tight. It doesn't hurt anything to have a longer strap than you need. I fold the extra strap and tuck it under the velcro. You could also cut the extra length and burn the end to prevent it from unraveling. Either way, its better to have more than not enough.

Well, out of the box, I don't think the strap is long enough to loop around a tree. However, it could be done if you are willing to spend extra on a piece of 1.5 inch nylon strap and carabiner(s), then loop it through the end of the rip60. It still be cheaper than the TRX Force. IMHO.

Throw away the straps provided and buy adjustable tie downs at rei or other. It's still going to drop down the distance of the hooks and pulleys

I'm not sure but it is adjustable to go down pretty far. You will have leftover strap depending on the size you make it.

I've been using this for a while and it's an excellent device. As any strap, it can be made shorter or larger by pulling one of the ends; it's hard to explain in writing but any person who has one in your gym should be able to show it to you. Good luck!Ronald/Paraguay

Hi. The straps close more like a belt buckle. I have used it many times and no problems at all.

It is secure as it is. I have made 3 trips to FL from MI and back. 10,000 miles with no problems. Just strap it down good.

I don't see why you could not cut the strap; just remember that you can't put it back once cut. Another reviewer said that they wished there were more velcro on the strap and collar so it could be fitted snugger. I agree. That way, the strap would not need to be cut. My neck is 16.5 to 17 inches and my strap is way too long, but I just leave it. It doesn't bother me.

It adjusts in a similar manner as an airline seatbelt. There is a clasp that can but doesn't have to be opened or closed. As part of the clasp, there is a part that can be pulled on to shorten the functional length of the strap. There is a moveable elastic piece that can stop the hanging.I just leave it at full length...

you could use your old strap. not the most secure but would work in a pinch

Instructions given are for use with the cargo carrier specified: one that has the slots through which the short end of strap attaches via the oval ring. If you have that carrier: at top of bag feed the long end of s strap under the buckle attached to the top of the bag and up through the second slot and down through the first slot. If done properly you can pull on the buckle end of the strap without the strap slipping and you can pull on the short end to tighten the strap. Repeat the process with the short- end after feeding the short-end of strap through oval ring. Place the ring through the slot in the carrier and tighten. If you're like me and have a different carrier, buy some ratcheting tie-downs and wrap them around the bag and carrier once filled. I think that is a better solution anyway as the rubber attachment points on the bag could tear out. The bag is waterproof and I'm satisfied with it.

End to end is 54". I don't use the strap though. I mainly use it as a half case. Hope this helps!

It is fastened securely, so I agree with the other comments. A knife would have to cut through it and because it is such a thick, wide strap, that couldn't be done easily without you having forewarning and being aware of a threat. I also felt safer with it resting on the front side of my hips rather than the back side of my hips (like in the picture).

There are little plastic tabs on the outside edge of the top support bar (if you put it together correctly). Just make sure the top of the bag and the string are hooked into those, then gently tighten the drawstring to hold it in place. In my experience the middle bag is the *most* secure attachment.

You can probably lock the end of the zipper to the plastic that the strap attaches to, but you'd need a longer hook than a typical, tiny luggage lock. I imagine TSA approved luggage lock would work. The mesh isn't heavy duty, so if someone wants to cut into the bag, it wouldn't be much of a problem. But a lock would deter someone from opening the bag if it was left in a non-secure area. (The bag works great for our purposes. To and from soccer practice at my son's school.)

Yes. That's what the short strap on the left of the picture is for. Both long straps connect to it and then you toss it over. If your support is over 10 feet up I think you need to buy their extension strap, but I've never had to worry about that. I use this at home and TRX at the gym. I like the Jungle Gym better for all but a few exercises, and it's cheaper, too.
