Rico flag holder

[Jbiancolli]

I've installed the new flag holder from Rivco. Quality is there except for the plastic clamps which keep the flag from slipping on the pole. First ride, lost 3 clamps and the fourth lost its springiness. Any ideas what can be used that will still look good? I've also contacted Rivco for any suggestions.

Thanks for the offer but I don't have confidence in the clips. I went to Lowes and picked up some 3/16 rubber washers. Works like a charm. Thanks again

I lost one of the clips on my first ride, but I think it was due to where I positioned the clip on the flag... I think it was right on one of the seams, where the material is the thickest. Since then, I have stitched the flags so that the loop where the flagpole goes is a bit tighter, and I only need one clip to keep it in place. The flag slips on so tight that I won't lose it over the top even if the clip came off.

I thought I had come across some spring steel clips once upon a time, but I don't remember where I saw them, or what they were for. I guess I'll have to either look in my junk bins, or overdose on Ginko to get my answer...
