Kinda lame problem here - I haven't figured out how to attach this thing without it swinging around *lots* during the ride. The main strap seems to be attached to the pak upside down, but it's obvious from the seatpost strap what way it should be attached.

So the seatpost strap is fine, but I can't attach the under-saddle strap properly. Can anyone whos got one of these please attempt to explain what I need to be doing? Thanks :)

Should be two straps - a seat post strap, and a seat rails strap (the longer one, that loops around the bottom of the bag). This second strap should be in two parts, with one part of the strap coming out of each side of the pack, and connects together with a velcro fastener. I usually connect the seat post strap first, then deal with the seat rail strap.

Make sure the pack is installed the right way up - you should be able to read the 'Sette' logo right-way-up from behind the bike, and the seat rail straps should be attached to the top of the pack. Loop the strap coming out of the left side over the left seat rail and out the left side, and the right-strap over the right seat rail and out the right side, then loop them under the pack and velcro tight. It should mount nice and snug up against the bottom of the seat/seat rails.

If its similar to some other systems, you've got three straps, right?

One off the nose of the bag that loops round the seatpost. Two more, on either side of the bag, at the top.

Take the two top straps, loop them up and over the seat rails then around the bottom of the bag and fasten together.

The seatpost strap, well your on your own.



Note: I could be dead wrong. I'm looking at a pic on the web and extrapolating to how my bag is attached.
