Would this work for a back carry in an Ergo? It seems like the strap that goes over your neck could be a problem when back carrying.

I haven't used it to back carry, but the neck strap does snap/unsnap and tightens/loosens. So you could possibly thread it through the straps, whether you are front or back carrying. I might need to try it that way. It would probably be more comfortable than wearing around your neck and keep it on just as well.

My daughter is 28 lbs (will be 2yrs old in December) and I still use my ergo all the time! I even used the back carry feature for my 5 yr old this summer! I love my ergo and say, yes totally worth the purchase vs other carriers.

possibly the Becon Gemini straps look a bit wider than the ergo though. these have snap closures that fit around the ergo straps.

Yes, though it is more secure over neck if you are very active. Great strap.

I no longer have the bag but I don't believe it would be comfortable as a shoulder carry. You could use one strap and carry it a a slinger type.

This could be pertinent, depending on your build: I had trouble getting the shoulder straps to be narrow enough side-to-side. I'm 5'6" with a slim/avg build, and the straps just slipped off of my shoulders. Tightening them just made the pretty-stiff straps bend on their edges, so I returned it and got another carrier (Ergo) with softer/more closely set straps straps. Could be just me, though!

It has a sturdy clip built in on the back that would easily accomadte a neck strap as long as it's not too thick. It's very light, you'll barely even know it's there.

I haven't had to use it much except on my leg, but I'd say the shape of it doesn't lend itself well to upper back. You might use it on back of neck or across a shoulder but not across a large expanse of back. There would be no way to hold it in place as the Velcro fastener wouldn't work.

Yes it can, however the width of the pad will cover the back of your neck almost completely. The main benefit of this strap is when you're carrying a lot of weight. Additionally, you can use the fastex buckles to remove the center section of the strap and fasten the two short ends together to make a short hand-carry strap for your camera. The one downside of this strap is that the loops that fasten the strap to the camera tend to twist up and have to periodically be allowed to untwist by opening the buckles.

I think it would be fine under the pack. It is not any bulkier than a regular strap, really. I use it with a full size DSLR and zoom and have no problems. I like how it slides on the strap. Enjoy!

Well I ended up getting it for my ebike. It works great carrying my old style SLA batteries. Sometimes I carry just 30lbs on one side and sometimes 30lbs one side and about 10lbs the other. I actually dont notice it wobbling or other problems. Maybe its just me. But anyways...works good!

No, the handles are too short. I mean, if you happen to be really small or something, then maybe. I think for most people it wouldn't really work over the shoulder.

The chest strap that goes across the back during a front carry is adjustable to your comfort level. It can move up or down and can bring the shoulder straps closer or further together.

It is not a clean fit but you can make it work. The bottom strap will work but the other straps will not. It worked fine I my long trip but it is a little cumbersome to get on and off. For the price is get it again.

Mine is fairly comfortable as a neck strap, although I usually do not use it that way. I usually sling it over my shoulder (similar to a rifle strap). The rubber padding is soft enough that it conforms well to the shape of my shoulder and does not slip off. I like my strap a lot because I have large digital SLR that is a bit on the heavy side. I think it is a good bargain for the price. It's a good product.

It's definitely too heavy for shoulder carry. I would use multiple locks for both the front and rear wheel and possibly one around the battery housing.

They may, they just wrap around the straps and then snap together. The ergo has about 3" wide straps, anything wider than that teh pads may bunch up the straps.
