- If you every need to carry anything on the back of your bike, these ROK straps are the things to have. A cross between a tie down strap and a bungee, they are the easiest and most secure fastenings I've used.
Highly recommended.

Best review on TH-cam of rok straps, after years of fairings getting scratched from bungees, I've ordered a set. Thanks
Glad it was helpful and thanks for watching. I love them and find them so useful.
I have the same straps and bag but I put my bag longways in line with the bike and it straps down neater
Good video..well explained and demonstrated unlike the twits on TH-cam who never showed how the work in detail. Good job
Thanks for watching
Yeah, thanks for nothing, Spurg, lol
Thanks for the video, just picked up a pair yesterday and couldn’t figure out how to use em to strap down a lunch bag for work.
Always been a bungee man, now converted to rock straps, cheers pal!
Bought some in March 2010. They are excellent, but will mark your paintwork dependant upon what you use as anchor points. I usually cross over from pillion peg hangar to rear rack
Thanks, good tip. I usually use the pillion handles and the rear rack as mounting points on the Crosstourer
Thanks for sharing your good experience with these. Excellent explained, demonstrated and hope you are using them regularly, which means you are in adventure with your pack :). Of course I will order immediately. Found an offer in ebay pair of 42" + pair of 60" in a Super bundle for 25 BP, which is a bargain. Don't know what color will receive, but whatever is, will work well, I know, thanks of your good video. High viz I thought would be good for passive safety in traffic... As I see you are adventurer can recommend one more bundle from the same seller - Rocky Creek Ultimate Tubeless Tyre Repair Kit - includes mini Motopressor and all in one puncture repair kit. Will put in the basket for 80 BP. Little expensive, but very compact and I find it as essential in the middle of nowhere. This is for tubeless tires, if yours are. I own AT Adventure Sports, which is originally with inner tubes, but have been converted in tubeless by previous owner. This is also interesting stuff, but another time as my comment became too long :) Sorry for that! Have a safe ride! Cheers! Ivo
Solid as a Rok... I see what you did there
Total bogus term@ 1:27. There's nothing ratcheting about that style 😂
Very informative thanks
Glad it was useful. Thanks for watching.
'this is the black orange colour'
How long the rok strap last ?
Can you run the strap through the D-Ring for extra securement
Do you think the 16mm width ones will be sufficient for a 20 litre dry bag?
Thanks
Difficult to say, but would depend on what you've got stuffed into the bag and how heavy it is. If it's just t-shirts and jeans then probably, but anything more I'd go for the wider ones. Remember you want your bag solidly secure on the bike and don't forget to factor in the force on the bag with wind resistance when you're riding! Thanks for watching
Thank you for your service to the blood banks
I use these to get my shopping home in a 70l oxford bag brilliant straps .
I don't know how I survived with luggage before I got them!
Fairly unrelated question......what's the disc lock and cable combo you've got on the bike in the background?
Lol - good spot!! Its an Oxford Monster disc lock. The cable came with it.
Link to buy ?
are the plastic clips sturdy enough our do they seem to be easily breakable?
Seem very sturdy - I use mine to tie down 25kg blood boxes and they hold just fine.

Ratchet Straps are the absolute worse for loosening ,won't stay fastened with any movement at all...
Just don't let them anywhere near your exhaust!
Tactical machine guns 😆😆 and no they dont use tie down straps they use slings designed for those weapons systems.
Good video tho! Lol
I find Rok to be much too skinny..
