Has anyone here fitted these. I'm thinking on getting one for the front as I have a hand rail on the back.

Interested to hear your opinions.

I have both. Good quality like most of Kriega kit.

Really useful for when getting stuck in enduro/offroad events. Saves pulling the plastics.

Two friends have used these.One was when he got very stuck on a UCR in Kent and the bike sank into the mud.A good tug on the strap and it came apart in my hand.Tried the one fitted to the rear of the bike and that went the same way.

The other bike that had them fitted was thrown at a deep puddle where we could not reach them.We ended up using a length of webbing that I keep in my bum bag for just such an occasion.This stuff is far cheaper at places like B&Q and is about £1 for one metre.I asked Mrs.Fizzer to machine a loop into each end using her sewing machine and this can easily be passed through a front wheel or a part of the frame allowing the bike to be recovered.

Did it break or badly mounted or came undone? I'd be very surprised if you managed to snap it. Mine has been pulled up enduro climbs by marshalls, even tugged along on it's side. Yet to see one snap.

Maybe the ones that broke were an early version as the mount eyelets seemed to take up most of the diameter of the strap,weakening the strength of it.

Maybe it was the suction of the glutinous mud and trying to pull out a WR450F
