But, I keep having to replace the sodding bungees I use.

The slightest bit of chafing and they're in tatters. I did have some really good ones which lasted yonkers - but they got lost - and I can only get shitty ones now.


Anyone recommend any that'll last more than 1 trip please?

Dont use bungees get down to your local dealers and ask them for the tie down straps which they often give away. I dont trust bungees at all can can easily slip and take an eye out, ive had a few near misses

If you have a Boyes store near you, I got 2 bungees for £1.50 at mine. And seem decent enough quality

rok straps are brilliant, but expensive, I use them after seeing them in use on my mates bike.

a cheaper but still ok option are the Oxford Products adjustable bungee cords.

but NOT as good as rok straps (thumbs)
