Current ride: S1wl IronhorseSunday
Location: north wales
Got myself one of these last month and was pleased with it, very well made and waterproof. Trouble is its a medium and is way too big for the S1WL, so needs strapping down.
However today it experienced its first taste of snowdonia weather rain and 30 -40mph winds (damp breeze by our standards) and the bike got fecking soaked..... :x :evil: not happy coz these are fairly pricey :sad1:
Anybody had this problem, do you think I should send it back or spray it with proofer.
