V4 of my Oculus Quest 2 headstrap
Note: This is in its own Thing because it is more complicated to make but it is a vastly superior design.

This one more closely rips offmimicks the official Elite Strap. This is intended for use with 25mm elastic bands on the speaker caps.
The gear rack parts need to be printed in nylon or similar firm but flexible filament. ABS may work but I haven't tested it. PETG could also be an option, but again, untested.
NOTE: I added a threaded version of KnobAxle and a version for a heat insert. The heat insert version is probably more durable, but it requires you to have quality inserts that work well.
You will need the following hardware:
4x countersunk M3 bolts. At least M3x10, but M3x15 is better
1x M3x5 bolt(for the central axle to keep it from falling out)
M3 Nyloc bolts
1x 4mm OD compression spring
1x 3.92 bearing ball(they're in skateboard bearings, the ones named 608zz)
Some superglue or epoxy glue to glue the knob on the gear axle
Two pieces of 25mm elastic band to mount to the speaker caps and the gear rack parts
Velcro to make the top strap(or you can re-use the default one if you don't mind that)
A way to join the elastic and velcro together. I opted for sewing, but do it however you want
Optional but HIGHLY! recommended: A counterweight of some sort. Shoot for around 350g or so to balance out the weight of the headset. A power bank is highly suited. I added anchors to ziptie a power bank onto the skull cup
