Rear Wheel Bag/Bin advice?
« on: September 04, 2011, 04:23:44 PM »
Just one more thing to get before the trip to Lake Eyre ... a rear wheel bag/bin.

For this trip it'll be used to carry rubbish ... what's the best value for money bag? Where can I get it and what features should I be looking for?

Thanks in advance ... 18 sleeps to go  ;D

G'day Disco Emu,
We have an 'Infront Camping' rear bag. It is excellent quality and sits on the spare tyre without sliding down like some rear bags do.
They have a 10% discount sale on all products at the moment.
Just quote 'issac' at the online checkout to get the discount.

And we have an MSA which works well. You can get them from ARB, but mine came as "freebie" with a magazine subscription. Ours has a hole in the bottom to let it drain if anything wet goes in it.

Bushranger, good fit and adjustable straps. I have had mine 2 1/2 years. It would spend more time on the GU then off it. I have never even had a zip problem either.
Easy to clean too.

We have the Bush Ranger as well. After 4 years and with the intense heat up here the stitching is starting to fray but apart from that it's been a treat. Certainly carried it's fair share of cans.

We picked up a couple from SuperCheap a few months back for $20 ea.  Fits both our wheels (biggest is 33") and good as new after dong the trip through the Simpson.  We used one for rubbish, one for dirty clothes.

I saw the stock screen and there are 690 in the distribution centre so they shouldn't be too far away.
