Weights on Transpac

I have two of the XS Weight Pockets on my belt, but don't like them there. One stays in place (the side with the buckle) and the other one slides off evertime I undo the buckle. I thought about mounting these on my tank straps or purchasing something like this

This is the only one that I could find like this. I guess I could just get a fanny pack and put weights in it and clip it in between straps on my tank.

Any ideas?

Something I have been meaning to try with my transpac is putting a hard weight on each side with a triglide in the middle of the weight. I have would then use my weight pockets for less (ditchable) weight.

haha .. no no. i wasn't being sarcastic. Right when you posted that I looked down, unthreaded the belts, and made the adjustments. They're all set now. I just didn't know what they were until you mentioned them.

= me.


I appreciate it.

Have you thought about getting the trim weights that clip to the 3 D-rings on each side of the back of the Transpac. They are soft weights and very comfortable.
