Rob:

As usual, you’ve put a lot of thought into this, & it shows. I’m still trying to understand the front situation for getting to the bottom without going thru the top. Probably have to wait until I see it in person.

On my bag, I added 4 D-rings to the bottom and a couple of small hooks that fit the screws holding the mini-rack to the fork. Some shock cord & I’ve got a pretty secure hold down that’s easy to remove. The original Velcro was pooping out & it was awkward to do when mounting the bag. Have to show it to you sometime. Not as elegant as a decauler but did not add any hardware up top either.
