Might be worth questioning the IP rating? Really not my forte in that side of things
Although I am a user of exposure, it does put me off a brand that has ‘excellent customer service’ and is well
known for it too. If the product is good, then how do people know this?

Re: The magic roundabout ...
Sounds to me like you need to build the Jones up with some gears if it’s not getting used but only after you’ve bought that new bike :wink: Not sure if you’re familiar with this brand https://tout-terrain.de/en/the-products/bicycles/x.over/outback/ but someone over on instagram (https://www.instagra...

Altura dry line rack pack (trunk bag) Just got one of these on order, £44 instead of £75. Hopefully a Tailfin on the cheap (plus I only have 7 inches between saddle and rear tyre - can’t believe I typed that - so hopefully a good alternative to soft luggage or my Ortlieb panniers) https://www.amazon...

Liking this from Rodeolabs, ok it’s not new but the custom finish is certainly eye catching. Looks neat too!

Re: i need a new front light..... idea's please.
If it’s for the fat Viking, you won’t need many lumens to keep you going. If it’s good conditions, you won’t need much light as the snow will reflect all the light and if it is snowing, you certainly don’t want a lot of light either. Win win situation!

I think if you can manage with normal trousers down to -7c in the UK, with merino pants added and the insulated over pants you recently bought, you’ll have most bases covered. Most I wore on my legs in low temps (-20C or so) was roubaix thickness tights below my wind stopper softshelll pants and the...

Re: Single skin tents: do they work in British conditions?
I had one years ago, a TNF one. Was tall enough to sit up in and was reasonably vented. Worked well from Easter onwards but did find the winter more prone to condensation (which would also freeze on the inside…!) I have bought a nature hike single skin tent but I’ve not had the chance to use it (or ...

Re: Find yourself a Fogou.
A fogou is a name derived from the Cornish for cave. They are extremely rare, with the remains of only 15 fogous known to survive in England and all of them are in Cornwall. Don’t want to come across as an arse but do you think the two are related? ie calling it a Cornish name and then declaring yo...

Why exposure? Absolute garbage value for money IMO For me, they’re reliable and I prefer the all in one system too.

(Have the Z packs one) Wrapped around your bar bag can work or folded in half seems a good compromise for under the bars or on the rear rack if you’re that way inclined.

Re: Which Exposure light?
Have the Toro, great for road and ‘classic’ gravel and some easy XC stuff but does require a head light to look through corners on fast, twisty off road stuff.
Not the best picture and the light is pointing a little more down for use on road but you get the idea
