So i went back and brought 4 more.... The same thing is on the Bay number 200352957186. We also use the padding that you buy to put on your roof rack when you acarry canoe ,around the sunroof hole to save your ribs from the ruts and holes.... Quote Link to post

fitcher 0 Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Those Lidl bike intercoms are just the job . Used ours last winter and improved communication resulted in improved kill rate and we could swear at the driver when he went over the rough stuff . We've got a couple of old Series Landies fitted out with lamps and cages . Mine has parabolic springs which gives some comfort to those in the cage , my mate's is on standard springs - sure we've all got bruised kidneys after a night in that one !! Quote Link to post
