Vaude Cycle bags

[Neil Smith]

Dear All,
the strap attaching the handle to my Vaude cycle bag has come off. It is
necessary to part of the clasp joining the bag to the rack. You have to pull
the handle for the clasp to come off. If this is clear does any oen have any
suggestions as to how I can fix this strap back onto the clasp?
Thanks
Neil

Perhaps this description might be clearer.
I have a Vaude rear pannier, which is excellent. However the strap attaching
handle the clasp that clips onto the frame has come off. This strap loops
through the clasp. I would welcome suggestions as to how I might repair it
as the pannier is not usable without it.
Would superglue work. It is made of heavy nylon webbing.

I'm not quite sure what you're attaching the webbing to: if it's more
webbing then a bit of industrial overkill needlework will probably be
best and is easily DIY-able, but if you're going to a waterproof pannier
body or plastic frame then obviously that won't be Very Clever.

Most outdoor companies seem to have pretty healthy attitudes to getting
their stuff fixed, free of charge more often than not. Drop a line to
Vau De's importer and see what they say ([email protected]).
