Seth: The bike it was on is being repainted (a Bombadil clear powdercoat that didn't like the salt air of the Jersey Shore), so I can't post the actual pictures, unless I can find an old one. I'll look tonight. But the Nitto Saddlebag Grip (what I called the Quick Release) is here (if I have the link right -- if not, go to Bags and Racks on Riv website, second page has the Nitto Saddlebag Grip), and there's a picture there. http://www.rivbike.com/products/list/bags_and_racks?a=1&page=3#product=20-109
You can actually get an even tighter connection than the one shown if you put the buckle inside the bag, so that all that shows outside is the strap. Releases in 1 second, reattaches in 1 second, totally solid connection, just a great product. Pricey, of course, but worth it, in my book.
