Quick fix. I just added a heavy duty plastic quick buckle to either side of the strap, and created a loop on either side to attach to the push bars. Perfect bag adaption for $2.20 (buckles were $1.10 each at Seattle Fabric) and a little time. It was a bit tricky sewing through multiple layers of webbing strap and bag, but not impossible. Taking the project to a tailor or shoe repair shop might be an option if you don't have sewing machine that's up to heavy duty stitching.
