I have done this to a couple pairs of these sandals, and it works like a charm. Even if you turn the bike around, whereby the metal could scratch the car, the rear wheel will stick out the right side. These hooks are good for lightweight items. The support arms are too short so my commuter bike tips over quite easily. They care if your happy with your purchase and that makes it one of my best purchases at Amazon! I Highly recommend. In all it sounds pretty amazing given its size, the speaker has a smart design language that intended to maximize the shape of the body to put tweeters as big as it can be managed to squeeze in. Ive read where people say theyre plastic but theyre more rubbery than plastic. It almost entirely mutes plane noise. Ordered a size size 10.
