Suitable for Bike Buggies ? - They fit on ours O.K.
We wanted to get a pair of Flags for our Bike Buggy and these fit a treat onto the Jogger Bar attachment.Build Quality.The reason we gave this a 4 star rating is because:1. The metal plate that is used to secure these flag poles is very thin and will bend fairly easily. Ideally - these should be at least double the thickness.2. There are only 2 small plastic Flag Securing bits ( see picture ) that prevent the flags from sliding down the pole. These are the only things that hold the flags in place. That is why we have added the 2 extra paper clips - just in case ! It would be nice for the Manufacturer to supply at least 4 to 6 of these with the kit - or certainly make these far more robust.On the whole they do the job that we wanted - the price reasonable for what you get.

Once fitted can't easily be removed, and middle plastic attachment weak, but good value.
I ride handcycles and need to be visible, so purchased these for one of my latest models that didn't have one. I hunted around looking for something reasonably cheap that would be easy to fit.I had to make up my own bracket to attach this to my handcycle, as it only comes with a fitting for a standard bicycle wheel. It works well enough and provides decent additional visibility but has a couple of shortcomings.Firstly, once the bracket is attached, there's no way to remove the flag, it's designed to stay in the bracket, so this means it can't be easily removed, for example if you wanted to load the cycle into a vehicle or onto a carrier. And secondly, the plastic attachment that holds the two fibreglass poles together isn't strong enough, as such I only use one length and have transferred the flag itself to the bottom half.Misgivings aside, they are cheap and do the job, so probably worthwhile.

Spoilt by inadequate plastic joiner
i would not recommend this product because of the plastic joiner, which joins the 2 poles together, and not being strong enough.Lost 1 flag on our first journey, 2nd broke within the week.The poles themselves are fine, and since I made my own clamp for the rods/poles to join them together, they have been fine and no further trouble, and stood the test of time.If you are capable of fabricating your own way of joining the poles before using them, and are happy to do so, then product should be useful.

Ok, but longer then I thought and didn't come with fixings.
They are ok,one was for a tag a long just to show it up a little more as we are going a long, the other for my 6 year olds bike so she can come on the road with me. Again a little longer then required but working ok we may cut them down a little going forward as in a strong wind the flags do hold them back a little.Didn't come with fixings but luckily my husband has something in his toolbox that did the job.

Pole connector snapped.
Fitted well to the childs trailer and was sturdy, but the first down hill the connector between the poles snapped and we lost the flag. This is what happened to the original flag supplied with the trailer as well (not say supplier). The pole connector was plastic yet gusseted do I was hoping it would be stronger than the other. I would suggest a metal connector even if it cost slightly more.
