No problems on either of my baggers, just need a little finesse from time to time.

I have no problems with the DZUS fasteners at all. You need to adjust. bending is absolutely a no-no.

I adjusted mine once and have not had any problems with them. It takes all of 5 minutes to adjust them. That said, I'm going to put at least one bolt on each bag for security.

I did the 5/16" clevis / locking cotter pin on the front attachments after I had a pin go "pop" on me. I worry much less about popping those pins now...
