The strap for my case has worn out, and I am looking to replace it. I have a Bobelock case with the option for backpack-style straps, and am interested in getting them so I can bike with my fiddle on my back.
However, there are no Bobelock retail shops in Germany, and I can't find any shopping options without very high shipping costs.
Does anyone know of an alternative that might work with this case? Other backpack-style straps that could be substituted (and that are comfortable for the back)?
Thank you!

Just for curiosity I also calculated the difference in length whether you've got two rings on either side at the top vs. one in the center. I assumed a vertical distance of 24", ring-to-ring and a horizontal distance of 8". The difference was less than half an inch (hypotenuse of 24" x 4" right triangle is 24.3"). However, the difference could be larger because with center rings the straps must pass over more of one's person.
