Abstract: A collar attachment for use with dropper seatposts on bicycles for securely attaching saddlebags during touring or bikepacking. The collar attachment includes front and rear lower lips for supporting respectively a strap and a mounting attachment of the bag. The collar attachment has a first internal bore, possibly provided with a resilient, tacky liner, which is a close fit around the seatpost, and a second internal bore, of larger diameter than the bore, which allows the collar to drop over a dropper post collar, minimising any loss of dropper travel. The invention may include a resilient and tacky lining such as thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) to accommodate a wide range of diameter dimensions and tolerances.

Abstract: A latch mechanism for securing together first and second parts of an assembly includes a first latching component comprising a retainer having an engagement surface; a resilient connector connecting the first latching component to the first part and applying a resilient action on the first latching component resisting displacement of the first latching component in a latching direction; and a second latching component comprising a projection having a latching surface and attached to the second part with the projection projecting outwardly from the second part to a free end of the projection.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and techniques are disclosed selective synchronization of linked records. A criteria may be received for a primary database that includes records. Records of the primary database may be linked to records of a first instance database. The criteria may include an inclusion of an expression or value in a specified field of a record. Records of the primary database may be determined to meet the criteria by determining that the records of the primary database include the expression or value of the criteria in the specified field. Records of the primary database that meet the criteria may be synchronized with the first instance database. The synchronization of records of the primary database that do not meet the criteria may be prevented.
