Not only do they clip together, but they come with little hooks for the ends so you can make custom-length bungees. If you guys don't have them at Bicycle Center, you should get them. We have them at JRA and customers love them. They are also available on line, for those who don't find them at their LBS.Ericnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18676999.post-45544408988714283782010-09-17T11:12:36.108-07:002010-09-17T11:12:36.108-07:00Hey, this is super!

That end can be easily adjusted for length.Kent Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01607372827627527450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18676999.post-72708062905281604142010-09-10T15:43:55.773-07:002010-09-10T15:43:55.773-07:00Kent, did you use a zip tie to keep the inner tube...Kent, did you use a zip tie to keep the inner tube from slipping out of the buckle? If so, how do you adjust the length of the strap? What a great use of punctured tubes! We used to use old tubes as short lengths of hose in the old shop I worked for since the mop bucket wouldn't fit in the sink.fatbob29rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08747122775697829654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18676999.post-25595505313877969622010-09-07T16:24:32.805-07:002010-09-07T16:24:32.805-07:00Brilliant!
