I can't tie a knot to save my soul. I got some straps and rings and was unimpressed to say the least (you could say "let down").
I said to heck with it and bought a new set of Ancra motorcycle tie-down straps (the good red ones), cut the hooks off of them and put biners on in their place. They work great! Fast, infinitely adjustable, and I usually have a set with me on the bike anyway. They pull double duty tieing all my kit down.
Yeah, they are heavier than straps and rings, but that doesn't bother me in the least. I've been using Ancras for years and have never noticed anything other than fading in the sunlight if left out for long periods.
Just thought I'd share.
