How long did you have to wait for that? Still waiting for my Nano Inner 1 year on and Sean has gone a bit incominicado on me
Malc, the standard sized bathtubs and micro tarps are 'in stock' items, so I think delivered pretty much straight away.

Well post been busy today, he has been back at lunch time with this little lot which I got thanks to OM classifieds; Western Mountainiering Flash Pants and Exped UL7 down mat with snozzle dry bag. Need to go on scales of truth but so far very happy with condition and price.

The postman hasn't been yet today, but he's been delivering parcels quite a lot recently.
Result: Lurcher, carbon rims, hope hubs, 1x10 etc etc. Waiting for thick-thin chainring. That's all.

Those rims look familiar... especially with that frame.

No idea on weight, don't have any scales. It's very light though.

Well, this is slightly embarrassing. I have a Rab Ascent 700 sleeping bag. I now also have a 500 bag too after Tiso's sale proved too irresistible. Easily justified to myself as I now have all possible bag/tarp/bivi/tent combinations for Scotland's four sessions.

Which one would you recommend for some winter action, sale is tempting.

700 has comfort rating of -5c i.e. 3-4 seasion. The 900 version is the artic rated one so 700 would be fine for any british winter. 500 is 1c comfort rated and is 400g lighter and 2-3 season - gonna try it out tomorrow night.
Both are the cheapest at Tiso I've ever seen

Drovers roads of Wales turned up from yetiman, so I'll be starting that once I've finished cordillera 3!
Tempted by a lightweight rab bag for summer use, but currently have a mountain hardware spirit sl so not really sure it's really needed!
