    I had the JB Tropic and it rubbed on my 14060m. No doubting the quality though.

    Like most, I’ve had countless of the cheaper versions of these straps and they simply don’t compare to the genuine vintage versions.

    The JB and “new” Tropic brand are the closest you will get to the original.
    Are we talking this brand.....

    The JB and Wolbrook straps are the same and the best available, in my opinion but the brand above are very good also.

    I’ve tried them all on my 14060m and they all rub.
