WARNING: Entanglement of cargo or straps in your wheel could
stop the rotation of the wheel, causing a loss of control or crash
that could lead to serious injury.
WARNING: Make sure that the half frame bag does not interfere
with the function of your bicycle BEFORE attempting to ride.
Ensure even cargo distribution and confirm lights and reflectors
are not obstructed by the bag.

4. Loosely attach the double-sided hook-and-loop strap around
the seatpost (fig. 1).
5. Locate the two coated hook-and-loop straps that are sewn to
the holster and route each one over the nearest saddle rail
from the inside to the outside (fig. 2). Fasten loosely.
6. Locate the two webbing straps behind the coated hook-and-
loop straps you just fastened. Route each one over the nearest
saddle rail from the inside to the outside (fig. 3). Buckle the
straps, but do not tighten them.
7. Load the dry bag, packing heavier items first. Turn the purge
valve counterclockwise to open it. Close the end of the bag by
pulling the buckles apart from each other and bringing the flat
ends of the bag together. Purge as much air as possible from
the bag and turn the purge valve clockwise to close it. With the
flat ends of the bag lying together, fold the rigid end of the bag
under and over at least three times and snap the buckles
together (fig. 4). If you cannot fold the ends at least three
times, the bag is overstuffed, and you will have to repack or
remove some of its contents.
