Pikey Bike Gear Collected

From Lidl this morning...

Black Tank Bag, 11l/22l expanded, 7 magnets & headstock strap,
raincover - £5.99

Stirrup Pump with pressure guage & assorted adaptors - £2.99

Folding Stool (for use in garage) - £1.99

Thanks Marina

 

Yeah thanks Marina,

I also bought the Tank bag, gloves for summer, kidney/back support and the
pump.

Tank bag seems quite nice, do people actually use the headstock strap...
just wondered if the magnets were good enough by themselves?

Anyway, nice tip Marina, thanks again,

Tommy

Tried the gloves on, grey, black & blue had horrible seems in the fingers.
Red ones were comfy but horrible to look at. Seemed a bit flimsy too.

Stops it falling on the floor when you lift it to fuel up. Also more hassle
for a thief.

 

Dead right about the gloves, wish I hadn't bought them now... but they were
cheap so I had to

My local Lidl had none of the items i wanted (so if anyone bought a spare
tank bag, i'll have it)

Watch 'em all turn up on eBay next week. There's one on there already!

 

Are the raincovers the pvc types that take your paint off
like the Argos cheapies?

There weren't any at the Hinckley Lidl yesterday
but I got a nice surge-protected master/slave 4-way
mains extension block instead.

 

did anyone but the all in one suit?

He's got some front, it's up with an opening bid of £12.00. So he's
immediately up for a 100% profit off someone unsuspecting. Notice
the complete *lack* of the LIDL word in the ad?

 

I don't have a problem with it at all, but when I saw the £12 I did think
"cheeky bastard".

How well made are they? It looks pretty good for occasional use.

I won't be getting one as the fuel caps on all my bikes sit proud of the
tank. I suspect that would make the bag fairly useless.

 

What part of the country are you in?

Thanks for the heads up. Usually I don't go to Lidl.

 

Kettering, Northants.

 

Ba!

 

Checked local to me (Essex) all gone now, bugger init.
