[QUOTE="PapaST, post: 190191, member: 8330"] I bought this model which looks to be just about the same. [url=http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0056ACQU6/ref=pe_175190_21431760_cs_sce_dp_3]Amazon.com: Black Rapid RS-Sport 2 "Slim" Sling Camera Strap with BRAD, ConnectR-2 & FastenR-3: Camera & Photo[/url] I like it but ultimatley I didn't like the attaching mechanism and IMO had too many swivel points on that attachment system. Strong design and the locking mechanism is a plus. I just didn't like the way it "hung" and moved around while walking. I still use it on the rare occasion that I cycle with my camera. Mostly because I use the "underarm" strap and a small mod to allow it to pin the camera to my back while I ride around. If I use a strap for normal carry I have a Joby Ultrafit Sling. I really like the attachment mechanism and it doesn't have so many swivel points to allow the camera to jostle or flap around while moving. Also, I like how you can tighten or loosen the sling on the fly. I like the fact that it's a solid thick strap so I feel less like an American Gladiator reject (when wearing the Sport BR) ;) [/QUOTE]
