Icon Issue

Anyone run across this issue...only had them in stalled 2 days!

One side is completely torn off the brackets and the other is half way off.

This a happen to anyone before...any good alternatives to secure these?

 

that's interesting...

maybe you over tightened and weakened the clamps??? seems weird 3 of 4 would fail though, does Icon make a bracket to put them on the shock?

 

That’s all they supply to mount there reservoir, is some hose clamps?!

 

That's exactly what I thought!

 

Is it possible your reservoir may not have enough slack?...my instructions show the reservoir slightly behind the location you have shown.
I'd not be overly concerned with use of hose clamps, the fact they popped is almost a "fail safe", however you can get some better clamps of course.

 

It seems to have some play in the taughtness of it. It's not stretched tight.

I've been in contact with Icon. They have been extremely responsive to the issue and indicated the hose clamp is faulty. They are sending new ones.

They've only been installed for 2 days of driving - that's what is so surprising - that and it has happened on both sides.

 

Nice. Good luck.
I use these to hold my fire extinguisher to it’s quick release bracket.

nice to hear they have come to the rescue quite quickly.

bravo Icon

 

I have the same set up. When you crank down on the hose clamp dont try to strangle the reservoir. If you over tighten it can stretch the strap and cause fractures.

 

I had the same issue. I replaced all 4 with clamps from Home Depot and have not had an issue since.

Looks like some faulty hose clamps.

No problem. Glad I could help.

I was not aware they had a presence on the forum....I have been impressed with Icon's customer service!
