Noticed some alarming wear on the bottom of the carabiner on one of my BR straps the other day.
It's about 4 yrs old, but has only had moderate use, so i'm a bit shocked! Checked on the BR site and they're only under warranty for 1 yr and that doesn't include 'wear and tear' so I doubt they'd cover it anyway!
They do offer a 40% discount on trade in if you have an item thats worn, but i'm sure all that would be swallowed up sending the strap to them (the US) and paying for postage for a new one!
They also dont appear to sell just replacement carabiners anymore.
Does anyone have any ideas on replacement parts as i've got more pressing matters to spend £70 on!!!!
btw, checked my other BR strap, and that too has almost similar wear!!
