The Carradice system is very amenable to home-made design. You need a suitable aluminium extruded rail, drilled and riveted through the material to a corrugated plastic stiffener. The Rixen and Kaul clips slide onto the rail. The R&K anti-flap hook is also rivetted in the same manner.
I'm taking my 8year old bags to the local market for a leather worker to re-rivet.
I'll check 'em out. The stiffener worked well and gave shape to the bag. My bag weighs 2 oz (compared to the JANDD @ 2.5 pounds. It is bigger and holds the flat kit and bike chain.
