a bit like the quick-lock system but less noticeable when not used.
there has been some discussion of this (or very similar) over in the "Gear" thread.
For those interested, this is what it looks like on a monster:

Got a photo of the underside of the bag? What keeps the bag from sliding back off the plate?
I've got that same bag, that uses the sw-motech horse shoe, which is on the ugly side.

I don't know why but the underside is different than on the Held website. The red tab is on a wire you need to pull to get it on and off (locking mechanisme)

Any Tankbag that doesn't require removal for tanking?
where can you get this from?
I was talking about the tab that is on before the bag is...

I guess maybe they could have made it so that you didn't have to take it off; but it's really easy to remove and put back on again. The manual says you absolutely need to use it, but on occasion I've forgotten it and it seems to be OK. Probably you'll get scratches on the paint if you use it like this all the time though.
