Ok - maybe I am just really dense but ---why in the world doesn't my TYR race belt snaps ever match up with bib holes?

It doesn't seem that complicated ----am I missing something?

I have often wondered the same thing...  I always just use one of the holes on the race number, and squish the other snap on wherever it lands!

The belt stretches- should stretch when you put it on - and pulls the bib tight then. If it match up before stretching it would tear the bib.

This is why I have a hole-punch in my transition bag....

doesn't make sense does it! My RunningRoom racebelt never matches up with the bib holes. The irony is where I am, the big sponsor for running races is..."The Running Room" they make the bibs and they don't fit!!!!

Urgh!!

Yeah Bear, I agree. Why is this such an apparent mystery to everybody else?

Why don't they come with extra snaps?  Mine lasted two races before one of the snaps flew off.  Grrr.

Not exactly rocket surgery, is it? I guess we'll just continue to enjoy this advantage, while others ponder the mysteries of the bib!
