The blue nozzles that attach bags to hoses on my bertha ballast keep coming loose when I am riding. I tighten them as much as possible but it keeps happening. Anyone have a similar experience with bertha bags? Any ideas how to stop this from happening? Thanks in advance

Duct tape. I know the old joke… but it works. <BR> <BR>I used a piece of duct tape on the treads of my ballast bags and then put on the waterbed fittings. It adds just enough material to act like a gasket and the fittings stay on tight. No leaks! I know some people have posted about permanently securing them with some type of glue… seemed like overkill to me. <BR>

What about the thin white teflon thread seal tape that you use on water fittings? What about maybe the blue color thread lock? I think blue is the weaker thread lock and the red is the ultra hold. Or try the Duct tape trick listed above.
