It wedges into the upper window in the flag mount and grips the pole. It gives a nice amount of grip, enough to keep the pole from bouncing out but not so much that it's hard to get the pole in and out when you want to. Super simple and super effective. FAQ 1. How does it work? It's rubber, and it works by fitting into the upper window in the mount. The pole is exposed there, and the rubber grips it and keeps it from sliding out. 2. How do I install it? Simply snap it in most of the way with your fingers, then use a flat bladed screwdriver to pop the rest of the ring into place. You can do it with the mount still on the trike, but it's easier on a workbench.
