Stolen parts

Don’t know if you can remember I got the plastic covers stolen from my bike rack
 
 
well Santa came to our house early and left me a 3D printer so after a few failed attempts and learning how to use auto and programs I got new ones made
 
 
must say I’m happy with them I still have them on file so I might tinker them a little bit more rounder corners and so on 😁don’t know what these cost to buy but I printed these of for around 90 p each

That's very interesting. My rack fitted by Thompson Leisure many moons ago never had those covers but does have them on the bottom 🤔🤔
As is said, what you never had you never miss but now I can see why they should be there, it tidies up the fitting very nicely.

Labour charges in Crossgar must be very good about 1p per houre? :-/ ;-) :D
but I suppose most of it will be put down to R&D.

You can start working on a water filler cap as the Heos versions don't fit Rollerteam.

I use a hose gun that fits the aperture perfectly but I there are are plenty of owners out there that would buy one if it was available.

This solution which is about €25 cheaper than a Heos has worked perfectly for me for years.
A big advantage is that the flow is unrestricted which is especially useful for taps with a weak supply
