Looking at 100 pcs imports unless everyone wants one.

2 quick questions:-

What's the capacity?

Why not use a spanner, rather than a pair of pliers, to tighten the nuts?

I will have one for around £20.00, looks good.

Cheers Dave.

Just a couple of thoughts:

Obviously a skilled technician using a pair of pliers to do up the nylock nuts.

Not sure if the main plastic body is shaped for tubing - wonder how well it will cope when the fuel container is full - concerned it might swing about the tube's axis.

Not wishing to be too negative - will be interested to hear your thoughts when you've had the chance to test it out.

2 quick questions:-

What's the capacity? 2.5 ltrs

Why not use a spanner, rather than a pair of pliers, to tighten the nuts?

Because the little Chinese Man that took these pictures is not me, not you and probably didn't have a snap on tool kit ????? maybe !

[lmg]

Add a couple for me to the list please

Cheers for the quick replies;

I haven't got the samples here yet.
I did not take the pictures
The bracket may have to change as I can't see how it locks onto the bracket either.

I guess the current bracket will be OK to bolt through a pannier using the same holes. But proper bolts and a socket or spanner (not supplied :unsure: ).

I have ordered 3 to have a play.

2.5 ltrs:

red only
Not food quality plastic, but may look into a water version if enough of a market.

I will let y'all know and if they are here by time the HUBB comes along, etc etc.....
