Does anyone know where to buy ESGE bicycle rack straps like this in the
US without costing more than the whole rack?

They are rubber which the blistering sun has now shot. In Europe these
used to cost $4-5. Adjustment is without any excess rubber dangling into
spokes and stuff.
Or maybe something similar that has such seamlessly adjustable rubber
straps. Bungees or Arno straps are not so cool for sensitive loads.
Some feedback in case someone else needs rack straps. I found this and
ordered a set of straps:

It looks even better than the original ESGE straps because the hooks are
metal. The small plastic ones were always leaving that iffy feeling and
frequent head turns to see if the load was still there.

A heck of a lot more complicated than a couple of Arno straps and not nearly as secure either.
