WTB tragkorb parts
« on: March 26, 2020, 10:16:04 PM »
Hi all,

Looking for a "case suspension catch" as bikebandit calls it for the hardbags. Part number is 46542303652. Figure I'd go through the community first and find one from someone who maybe has a busted case.

That part number shows no picture or OEM part number. I probably have what you need. Post a picture.

Made the effort to look through my box of leftover parts, couple of case latch parts but no suspension catch.

For some reason, those suspension latches wear out and don't stay latched.  I've lost two city cases because of that wear.  I now have a third that almost got away but for the fact that I strap the damn things on the bike now.  That latch is getting replaced soon.

I would drop the 28 bucks on a new latch.  Considering the cost of a replacement case, it's pretty cheap insurance.
