Re: Big clearout - lots of new & quality used stuff.

Hi, would you take £60 for the Cambrian c15? Hi Scott, It's priced pretty competitively at £75 as its only been used a couple of times, so I think it's worth a bit more than £60. Sorry! Just had a look how much they are new, they are more expensive than I thought! Sorry for the cheeky offer I knew ...

Re: Wanted Jones Loop bars 710mm

Hi Mark
Yes I'm interested what width are they? Are they the complete loop and I guess they are the version with the shim to fit a 31.8 MM stem?
How much are you looking for? Can you send me a photo?
Cheers Scott

Re: Quilt purchasing decisions

I'll second what Bob says ... get the 250. The 150 is a lovely thing and surprisingly warm but we only get about 2 months from every 12 where you can really use it :wink: Yeah cheer Stu I knew the 150 would be too thin for what I wanted but it did weigh a 100g less than the 250, which is neither he...

Re: Quilt purchasing decisions

I've the 150, it's fine for summer but once down to around 5C +/- I tend to use it as a wrapper around a similarly rated sleeping bag. This system is then good to around -5C. If I were looking for a 2/3 season quilt then I'd be looking at the 250. The above assumes you are using a decent sleeping m...
