RANT/ I hate you and I hope someone steals your stupid white bike. Your really just trying to be cool with your FTP, and all white parts. You also make yourself sound like an ass in every post you make, speaking of fashion and the likes. People are here to ride bikes.. go to the fashion/hipster forums to brag about your stupid endevours. Stop trying to be fashionable, stop trying to be a messenger, you sound like an idiot. /RANT
For some relevence in this thread.. dimensions doubles will stretch much like the older somas, but I feel that they have held up better than my newer laminated somas which broke and delaminated rather quickly. If you really need that extra retension, toshis are the best way to go. If your on a budget the older style somas work ok.
The reasons I started riding doubles was because my singles kept slipping and coming loose while riding brake less. So I moved up to the soma doubles, broke those then got my toshis. The toshis are stiffer, stronger, and more durable than any other straps that Ive tried. If I had to do it all over again I would go straight for toshis.
