hi,

there's more play on springbars with straps that bracelets... therefore, springbars for straps are usually thicker/longer than the ones used with bracelets (where the end links ensure minimal - if any - play).

in my experience, you'd normally use thicker/longer springbars.

just go to a local dealer and you'll get the right ones... normally for free! ;-)

cheers,
pg
