Sources of gear...
 

Hi All , I have bought a few things from some German suppliers and thought the details might be usefull for others-: Kedo all sorts of bits for xt including lowering kits, temp gauges, wheels etc. Loius again all sorts including roll packs some at silly prices!!! check out the "sponser bag blu" www.louis.de - Motorrad & Freizeit

outstanding value at 5 euros!!!!! thats £3.50!!

China paper maps from Bikechina.com and of course touratech bits from Europe....much cheaper!!! ( anyone off to Germany in a car soon?)

Have fun Jimmy

look graet, has anyone had one of these yet. Looks like just the ticket for me.

Re Blue Bag
 

Hi I bought two and used them to kep my camping gear ( tent sleeping bag, matt etc) in and wet weather gear ( so it was readily to hand). I really like the large access zip flap, it makes searching and storing so much easier. Very rain proof and dust proof, lasted well, used for approx 3 very hard months and then retired..at this price its not a problem!!!

Regards Jimmy
