Good work Veloista and quite prompt delivery from Switzerland

This arrived yesterday! fits perfectly!

[Matt]

No it doesn't, you need to make it smaller like this

Thanks!

I posted that from my new ipad and haven't figured out how to resize just yet.

Heres a link, don't want to enrage the mods with another massive inline pic! Photo isn't great quality I'm afraid.

I haven't cut the Velcro or tried packing it yet

[restlessshawn]

looks good

did you draw your template so it didn't go any further into the headtube junction than that or is that just how they made it anyway?

That's how I drew the template, I didn't see anything to gain by going right into the corner, same at the BB.

Wingnut Adventure pack, 26l of extra space. Comfortable pack for hauling gear, was incredibly stable on test ride today.
Caldera Cone setup for MSR Ti kettle.
Pile of repair gear for JIC whilst out for a month :D
BB30 Afterburner Crankset

SOOOOOOOO much more stable than my Revelate seat pack.
Not used it yet but the riding around the garden test produced a very positive yes. :D

i used one on my recent TransAlp trip (I've always hated saddle-packs in all of their guises) and it was brilliant!

no swinging, no rubbing, in fact I barely noticed it was there at all.

I also used a bigger dry-bag than suggested and so I was expecting there to be some movement but it was rock-solid.

a very simple and effective piece of kit!

[Stevemorg]

I didn't know they were out yet - what size is it?

In fact - I like that - I'll email Beth now!

[Taylor]

Comes in small and medium.

Thats a medium with an 8L drybag, about 2/3rds full of PD400 inside for trials.

[Bearbonesnorm]

I've been trialing a medium for a while (review after the weekend, once I get some more pictures). Have to echo the comments above. Even 'over stuffed by a cack handed idiot' resulted in no movement/swing ... as Gairy says, I've never noticed the fact it's there, which surely must be the ultimate accolade

[sallyh]

Wildcat frame bag and Tiger (medium) arrived yesterday and my BB jersey last Saturday . . . all three to be tried out this weekend :D

[Cheeky Monkey]

That does look very cool.

What are they costing (work blocks their site for some reason)?

[Taylor]

About £55 I think.

Oh I cant resist, have just emailed beth

[restlessshawn]

Mary bars turned up in the post. Had a beer while I was fitting them :?

[Mart]

WooHoo - just got my mitts on the new wildcat seatpack. Im liking it
Cant wait to try it out as next wk will be in the wilds of Scotland :D

[Cheeky Monkey]

Integral Designs Silwing tarp.

Through a mate of a mate for a stupidly cheap price, have no idea whether it'll work or I'll get on with it (I see Stu is selling his unused :?) but too much of a deal to turn down.

[Cheeky Monkey]

Bugger me it must be Xmas - Wildcat Tiger (at least I think so, not opened the package).

Might as well include the diddy Pocket Stove I recently got off the classifieds as well.

Must get beyond buying this stuff and trying it in the woods on dig days to another trip, even if it's just a short overnighter.

[Pyro]

Just had one here as well. Not strictly bikepacking, but a set of Came Creek Drop V levers, to work with the mountain BB7s on my monstercross/off-road touring thing.

[Ian]

Got a very small surprise package from the postman today :D

I'm just off into the garage to make a brew
