Got it all figured. At about 30%ish now. Will bump up the PSI some more to get it to about 25%ish

Anyone got any feedback on fox rucksacks? Need a hydration pack with enough space to carry a bivvy bag and a few bits and pieces,
Any other suggestions up to around £65 would be appreciated Smile

Check out the Osprey Line I have been using one of their smaller ones for about a year now and it is nothing short of great. I know they have a larger pack as well. The thing I like about it over Camel back is the lack of gross-ness to the hydration bag and line...I also like the magnetic mouthpiece holder....

Thanks! Shall look into the Osprey stuff a bit Smile


Another nagging thing, i Just got a dhx5 on here listed as spares/repair as it had 'come apart'

I've taken a pic of how it arrived and all the threads and seals look fine, this is my first fox shock so wasn't 100% if something was missing here, anyone tell me? Is it completely fine?

I know there's no spring there Razz I'm getting a ti one soon.

But apart from that it really does all look fine right? I've checked exploded views and nothing seems to be a miss, looks like I found a bargain?

Dude, I already own it, I'm just asking if it looks damaged or incomplete because as far as I can tell it's fine

Probably an internal problem then, if nothing is missing, either that or the guy got it like that, never put it together and its actually fine, did he say what was wrong?

He said the plunger had come away from the barrel, so by the look of it he thought it was broken because it became unscrewed...
