Looking at the design of the bag, Velcro will not be easy. I doubt the bag will close well if you just stuck Velcro under the lip of the cover. Of course I could be wrong. And you are still going to have the problem of fastening it to the bag. I suppose it could be glued.


I really don;t know why Ortlieb does not use Velcro in the first place. Those snaps can be hard to snap at times.
