FAQs

What is MOLLE and PALS webbing?

MOLLE (Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment) and PALS (Pouch Attachment Ladder System) refer to a system of webbing straps used for attaching pouches and accessories. It allows for a highly customizable and secure attachment method.

Can I attach non-Oxford brand pouches?

Yes, the MOLLE/PALS system is a standard. As long as your non-Oxford pouches are designed with MOLLE/PALS-compatible straps, they should attach securely to the harness.

What are the dimensions of the harness?

The approximate dimensions of the Oxford Nomad Adventure Harness XL are 75.5 cm x 48.5 cm.

Is the harness waterproof?

The harness is constructed from durable, weatherproof 600D polyester, designed to protect your gear from the elements. However, for complete waterproofing of contents, ensure your attached pouches are also waterproof.

How many bags can I attach?

The number of bags you can attach depends on their size and how you configure them using the PALS webbing and D-ring points. The system is designed for versatility, allowing you to attach multiple smaller items or a few larger ones.

Will this fit on my sports bike?

This harness is specifically designed for Enduro and Adventure bikes with a saddle structure suitable for this type of mounting. It may not be compatible with the seat design of sports bikes.

Does it come with any bags?

No, the Oxford Nomad Adventure Harness XL is the base system. You purchase compatible Oxford luggage accessories separately to build your personalized system.

Troubleshooting

Harness feels loose while riding

Re-adjust and tighten all four fitting straps. Ensure they are securely fastened and that no straps are interfering with each other. Check that accessory pouches are also tightly secured to the webbing.

Accessory pouches are not stable

Ensure you are using the PALS webbing correctly by weaving the accessory straps through the vertical webbing loops. Tighten the accessory straps firmly. Consider using smaller, more rigid pouches if large, soft pouches are shifting.

Water ingress into attached pouches

The harness itself is weatherproof. For items sensitive to moisture, ensure your attached MOLLE pouches are also rated as weatherproof or waterproof and have their closures sealed correctly.

Straps are difficult to tighten

Check that the strap channels are clear of debris. If straps feel stiff, try working them back and forth. Ensure you are using the correct attachment points for maximum leverage.
