Review on SIGSIT Reusable Bicycle Wheel Strap with Wavy Gel and Strong Hook & Loop for Enhanced Stability by Tim Beckett

Revainrating 1 out of 5

too long for most touring or racing bikes

These velcro straps have a sticky side to prevent wheel spin, but unfortunately they are twice as long as most bikes. I have 3 bikes, a large frame Specialized Rock Hopper, a Specialized Hydrid and an old Fuji 10 speed touring bike. My friend has a carbon touring bike with a smaller frame. All of this required a very complicated process of wrapping the straps in order for the Velcro to work as the straps are only meant to be wrapped around the wheel and frame ONCE, but they are so long that we had to wrap them two or three times. once. I have never noticed that the product warns "only if there is a large distance between the wheel and the frame". I would appreciate if the wheel to frame clearance is less than 6 inches - this belt will not fit. Update January 2021: Recently, the seller has repeatedly offered money to remove this review instead of fixing an issue or product description.
