for shipping use the ragusa bag replacement pegs. they work great for shipping i bet. easy to put in and take out.

i have one in the place of one of the bad bags i bought from mgm. Ragusa states he knew someone that had the compression

emergency member on both sides and just used them all the time. the air in the tires were all that he had on the back.

It would be good for shipping i bet. Mickey anaheim ca. 77 palm beach.
