Pilling on Shorts from Bike Bag Strap

[Alex]

I cut a piece from an old tube and put the velcro inside the tube. Once I velcroed the bag back on, I slid the bit of tube over the velcro.

I have pilling on my shorts in this area too, but alas, mine is from my thunder thighs rubbing on the seat. I wish I could cut the thunder thighs down like you guys have done with your velcro.

I have had the same problem. The part that gets me is the seatpost attachment (not the sides).

I wrap it up in electrical tape. It's so stretchy and sticky it works well to make a smooth fix. It's also relatively easy to get off.
