My new bottle cages and bottles have arrived for my experiment with lead weighting... Now I just need some lead shot!

I'm thinking that I'm probably going to need to velcro the bottles in place though as whilst I bought the sturdiest cages I could find, they still don't seem that sturdy.

Did I include the special rear line? I think I remembered but there were an awful lot of poles posted this week :wink:

The bug nest fits fine looks like it was made for the Silshelter .
In the pic's the shelter is not pegged out fully as i am baby sitting duty today ( my day off ) whilst my misses goes to buy a dress .
There is plenty of room between the two when pitched and the weight on my kitchen scales is 435gms in the stuff sack .

Looks good wingnut! What's the floor made of, any idea? Also what's the weight ... eBay says 600, I'm assuming thats for the 2 person net? Cheers!

Don't know what the floor is made of but it's waterproof and looks to be of decent quality , the weight is as I put the my post 435 gms and not the 600gms stated in the Ebay ad and it's big enough for one person only .
For £23 posted it looks good value to me .

Today I got some svelte KCNC bits; carbon fork bung to replace the one I robbed off the fat bike to build the Bahookie. A bar extender thing to mount the GPS - tips all other bar extenders into a cocked hat. Lastly, a disc calliper adaptor also for the Bahookie. Saved about an ounce. :geek:
