This was probably due to the bungee being incorrectly tensioned. I can
raise and lower my gear with a finger and thumb only. I am not very keen on
the bungee arrangement as it is difficult to adjust and it will need
adjustment after a few years as the bungee ages. I suspect that it will
need replacement every 5-8 years. Any experience on this? For what its
worth I have done a mod so that the bungee can be adjusted from below
without any equipment removal. I have looked at using conventional springs
but there is precious little room to install them.
