A few of their product names appear to have been inspired by other established names in the industry

Postie brought those backcountry bits to me today.
A fancy strap and a little zip up bag as I was fed up of searching the very depths of framebags to find spares etc.

And delivered a very nice Ti Goat Kestrel bivi bag. Seriously impressed and will be excellent for keeping the mozzies at bay. Incidentally on the kitchen scales it came in at 190 g a wee bit heavier than the advertised 160 g. Not a deal breaker for me though. How to other people find theirs weighing up?

A 64oz (1.8 litre) Sawyer Water Filter bag to replace the bag which comes with the filter, which is a little small.
A reflective mat for when it's very cold - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Highlander-SM0 ... B001U1K2HY. Hat tip to Sussex Paul on the hammock thread for suggesting this.
And some Firefly Cherry Moonshine. But that wasn't mine :)

I contacted them too, but they couldn't even extend me the courtesy of a reply
Re: The post man's been ...
I can't remember if I said this or not, but I had a few expensive hipster bits turn up recently
Keeping the classic jersey and the buff, which is actually rather nice. Other bits like hat and gloves going back, gloves were either too big or not cut right

Re: The post man's been ...
Nice little haul of cheap OS maps from millets- 3 local ones including a replacement for a very old one and 1 to take to a do we're going to for the OHs family up galloway way in the summer.
Quite happy about the included digital downloads too.

That's good to hear.

Well, that's exciting. Never thought I'd be this excited about buying a rigid mountain bike, but there you go.
