particle Report post Posted September 10, 2012 Here you go - looks like www.paragear.com has them. Looks like you have to buy two parts - the "seat belt quick release" and the "lug quick release". They're pretty expensive - might be a better priced alternative, but at least now you know what they're called and what to search for. http://www.paragear.com/templates/parachutes.asp?group=246&parent=34&level=2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like you said, a tad expensive, but boy do they look good in admiral's example bag picture..totally different to the run of the mill buckles.. I like 'em lots..

Horrrk Report post Posted September 13, 2012 they would be good for my saddlebags : http://planensattler.de/?k=taschen a european supplier would be more better ...... Hi Admiral..the bags on that link..are they your work? If they are, you already use quite an extensive collection of differing buckles, quick release snap hooks and swivel links already.!! lol I like the way they've been used and also the thought that's obviously gone into the differing designs. The steel corner trims..are they plain steel so they'll rust, or stainless? As far as the quick release buckles you originally posted about go, I've looked online for a supplier here in the UK and have come up empty handed too.. Maybe something will come to mind one day, cos there's sure to be a supplier somewhere this side of the pond.. Regards Phil Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bruce johnson Report post Posted September 13, 2012 The same buckle is used on flank straps for bucking horses. I haven't got any for a while, but Lowy was the source I used in the US. I don't remeber the cost for sure, but think it was around $12 for both parts. OIf sopmeobdy in the US is looking here's a link to the buckle - Flank strap buckle .

admiral Report post Posted September 13, 2012 Hi Phil, yes its my work, the buckles i have from Czechoslowakia , if you need anything i can sell you for the same price i pay , usually i buy hundreds of buckles in one order .... the corner trims are selfmade of stainless steel with a plasma cutter , @ Bruce, i asked lowy, the quick release buckles are 875 for 50 complete buckles ( 17,50 Dollar both pieces ) and 445 for shiping to germany ...... but i can ship it with a container service too,i will ask for a rate regards Rouven Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I shall bear you in mind when it comes to my future pannier fasteners, thankyou.. Those buckles themselves aren't too expensive and only work out to under £11 Sterling each, but the volume required and the shipping costs are what would put it out of my league.. Bruce..your Lowy site is one heck of a find.!! Loads of fasteners to drool over there..I'll book mark it for future reference, if only for ideas of what's out there.. nice one.. Take it easy guys..
