Same thing happened to me on Sunday. Due to my experience with fanny
pack no. 1 the week previous (quick-release let go and I lost all my
stuff), I called Mark and he's going to make the webbing a continuous
strap all the way around. The webbing will either go through the bag or
be X-stitched on the back. The quick release will be offset from center
so my spreader bar doesn't push on the quick release.
