How to use the velcro? The bag has six velcro strips running up the sides, does anybody know how to use these velcro strips?

If you have a Topeak rack you don't need to use the straps. They're useful for those who, for unknown reason, would choose to use this with a basic rack. You'd use them to attach it to the top rails at the points indicated by the strap locations.

I don't have the panniers, but these are well-designed, so have no fear.I think the Velcro strip on each side is used and a cross Velcro connection between the panniers, too.

I use PVC cutters from Lowes or Home Depot to cut the large length-wise into smaller strips. I have 4 dogs, all under 30# and this makes the bag last a little bit longer. They still need to chew for a few minutes and they get it every night.

They are plastic strips to keep the zipper tied once you close the bag and to secure it won't get open. I used them to be on the safe side.

Yes, you get one bag per order. Just a side note, the velcro on these bags is very strong. I tried opening the bag by pulling the sides like a bag of chips and the bag tore before the velcro gave way.

HI JeanneMinimum 6 rolls. This is because the bag is large and spacious enough whereby you can fit in more rolls that may not necessarily be secured onto the loop fasteners. I hope that answers your question. Pls do not hesitate to ask me if you have more questions. This is a brilliant product! everything in one bag!

http://www.bobgear.com/support/product-instructionsThere are the packing instructions for the bag. You will have to click on a second link for the travel bag. I can't figure out how to link the pdf. There are photos too.

Other than zippered openings in front, the only other opening is at the top where velcro is used to "seal" bag over your hanging bar; there will be slight space around plastic rings on ends of bag. Bottom is not open. I have tried many such bags, etc. And this is the best I have found.

The bag I received zips up from each end. The zipper tabs have holes that could accommodate a small lock to secure the tabs together. A wire tie would also work.

My first question to you is, "Did you pull the black piece of tape off the sealing strip?" Hopefully, you did not. If you did, that's causing your bag to stick. Next, what bag are you using, VacMaster,FoodSaver......? If you pulled off the tape from the sealing strip you need to contact VacMaster for help.

In the middle area there is a foam pad that has 4 compartments that you can adjust with Velcro, (supplied) to become 8 compartments. There is enough room to fit a couple abdominal pads on each side on the inside also. On the sides there are 2 Velcro attached pouches,(1 on each side) which have 7 stretchy sections to hold down instruments. Also on the flap of the Main compartment there are 3 rows of 6 stretchy sections to also hold instruments. Keep in mind this bag comes loaded, but from my experience, there is enough room to put a lot more...don't get me wrong what comes with it is really all you need but I have added some of my own things.

I usually don't use the Velcro bracers. The bags sit fine on the rack ands stability is not an issue. The bags only have clips on one bag and the other hooks onto the bag with the clip. One piece of advice: The clip locks onto the bike rack. Put your hand under the bag to loosen the clip before lifting the bags off the rack. If you try to disengage them using the handle alone, the handle will break. I sew and was able to fix it, but it's definitely worth the extra 20 seconds to avoid the issue entirely.

It took me awhile to figure it out --- you actually need to fold the sides in the opposite direction that they sit in their flat stored position. If you look at the emblem on the bag butler, and read the directions (look at the emblem's location in the pictures) -- then it's easy to figure out.

Mine have the adhesive strip on the bag itself. You peel off a strip, it is sticky underneath, so you fold the top over and stick it down to the bag.

Hello Ron..I have been asked to comment on your query. The Velcro strips supplied with the insulation pads are pretty decent, in that the adhesive part works well....I cannot comment on the temperature range for application (I live in Qatar, so everything is mostly done in the higher temp ranges)....but did think it worthwhile to mention that you need to watch out for the fact that the rear section (Unltd Wrangler) of insulation, because of its size, detaches itself from the Velcro side of the strip quite often. This is a minor hassle and just needs to be "pressed" back in place. I am considering placing extra strips of Velcro in these "problem" areas.

There's a spot designated inside for your laptop and it dies have a Velcro strap. The spot is a little big for a thin laptop like a MacBook (which is what I use it for) but it's a fantastic bag!
