Re: Dyno Hub Rotating In Forks
What hub is it . I had this issue with a 15mm sp hub.
Scotroutes also had it iirc.
The fix was to file down the qr adaptor so that the fork legs clamped the hub body rather than onto the adaptor.

Re: Wildcat Lion - Additional Drybag Stability?
what are you sticking in the bag ? i find that things that have a certain squish work better than hard things so stick my bed roll in - that lets the straps compress the area they are tightened and compressing the stuff in the bag rather than hard stuff . I use Expeds (not ultralight) and alpkit air...

Re: Wildcat Lion - Additional Drybag Stability?
As do I
The other thing I do is I tie the remaining ends of the straps up so they can't slip through the clips. Ergo cannot come loose.
