Triple piggyback battery for my Exposure Diablo from MTB Batteries
Which model of battery is that Nigel? I looked on the MTB Batteries site but I'm none the wiser, I'd like one for my joystick.

It's not on his webpage, I just saw an stw thread mentioning he might do one when googling for the standard one. It's £45 inc the charger adaptor. Battery spec is 3.75v, 7.8ah & 29.25Wh reading off the side. The cable length is to your choice. I went for 1.3m so I can put the battery in my jersey pocket rather than hanging off my lid.

Some lovely new tarp poles courtesy of Stu, really well made and light. The rigging style makes dropping/raising the tarp so much easier too, thanks. Hopefully I won't fall over onto these and bend them like the ones I was using before from go outdoors.

Nice man in a van brought me a frame, fork and headset ... the full carbon fork weighs just shy of bugger all ;)

G-Form knee pads. Very thin and unbulky. I wouln't say that I didn't notice I was wearing them, but they were comfortable enough during a 25mile road cycle to Glentress , the day at Glentress, second day at Glentress, 25miles back home

An igotu bluetooth heart rate monitor & wahoo bluetooth speed cadence sensor to use with my iPhone & turbo trainer. Netflix subscription to follow perhaps to relieve the boredom....

Carradice Camper longflap in black... wish I went for the green one but I already like it a lot - loads of space to stuff things inside. It's very stable with a help of a mini rack :)

Some exposure lights arrived this week, spoilt myself with 2 joysticks and a rear flare (which I'm highly impressed with for commuting). Even better, Rutland Cycles had them in sale and they delivered next day for free :D

Just collected a Planet X Uncle John frame and forks I got off ebay - they're mint - will be a commuter and cross bike when built up. Most chuffed I am.

Postman bought the last few bits for my Krampus build. A Surly OD chainset, looks very classy in the flesh, some white rimstrip for the Rabbit holes and some obscenely large and heavy 29 x 3.0 tubes.

John, how much was the Fatty frame bag? Is yours a medium? (Thinking if it is they'll already have a pattern...)

I know it doesn't matter but the gap between the bag and bottom of the seat tube would bug me :roll:

As it's made from innertubes I'd just ram something in there to stretch it a bit. ;)
