I'm trying to find someone who still sells these straps or know of the manufacturer here in Oz. I love these straps and have had them since the early '80s, I need another pair. The common cam-lock types you see everywhere have nothing on these. So if you know anyone who's got them please give me an hoy. Ta![]()
I still have mine from the eighties, I believe they were a Mont Blanc (as in roof racks) product.
Might have to auction mine off since they're such an in demand item...any bids..![]()
I've moved on to the heavy duty clip types. So if you really really want them, you can have my old ones...ones a bit shorter, got caught in the whell of a trailer. ![]()
Bugger, I had 400 pair of these things back in the late 80's, early 90's. They were all pink and the pair I had lasted over 20 years. Only chucked them when the rusted solid.
Sold the lot with the business, wish I had of kept them after reading this stuff.![]()
Can they still be bought? and from whom?
I have about 10 of them here the exact ones you have in the photo... I use them for tying down kayaks and windsurf boards... They are sweet... I will see if there are some i can spare to get rid of... You might be that lucky... hahaha
But yes they are good...
The straps I bought when I got back into windsurfing again are great. They are the anti-theft straps with some metal cabling in the strap. The best thing about them is on windy days they don't get blown around like normal straps do.
