T-Bob Posted September 8, 2017 Share After flirting with it for the last few months I've gone #FullFannyPack thanks to a CRC's big sale. Had got the inov8 one to see what the fuss was about and for R250 with bottle it's was great for quick 2hr sessions and carries fair bit of stuff but with summer coming I wanted more liquid (this has a 1.5l reservoir) and you can strap your pads to the outside for the long climbs. I'll get in first. Yup, now you'll see a Fanny on a tranny. Tried to find a half decent picture but there aren't any. It's a very uncool looking bit of kit but it works.

GrahamS2 Posted September 8, 2017 Share I keep coming back here to see what else you got for the build. Cant wait to see it complete!So far just the frame and a shiny new Pike RCT3 140mm soloair boost (hi Miles ) have arrived. The wheels, cockpit and components are in varying stages of transit at the moment, but I'll create a build thread once everything is here and assembly can begin.
