Dunno ....
I was kicking myself after buying it
but the original pipe i had / still have somewhere
was very manky ....

I rekon its best to own up and do it properly ...

As i am at the stage of not tracking how much I am spending on this project ... I can easyly put it to the back of my mind and forget it ... shame BarclayCard dont !

If you buy one from rover its solid rubber/plastic with a wire insert, not like the standard fabric with a spring inside!

I was looking for ages for a cheaper alternative to Avonbar. Trouble was that Rover claim to have stopped making the Metro pipe. When I finally plucked up the courage to call Avonbar they told me that the uncrushable is no longer available but there is an alternative that is cheaper. When it arrived, it was the orange fabric tube with a coil up the centre and they charged the same, ?45!
