Youcabn get bra types which only cover where your legs go really. Bagster or the type that cover all the tank I feel are much better to protect the tank and add bags if you want to

Ta, I think I will go for the full cover type, protection is better with them.

Black and white Bagster on Ebay for £104 or Best Offer....

Looks like the winner for me.

If your in no rush they do come up second hsnd on ebay, every so often. But prices can go high as they are in demand.

I haven't had any issues with anything that you wouldn't with a Baglux - I.e. best way to fit is to fit, leave it on for a month, and then tighten again after it's softened a bit.

Takes my bagster bag as well.

Have one fitted to the wifes Wee as well.

Would you like some pics?  If so I'll fire some up at the weekend

Pics would be really helpful, thanks. I like the style, but I like the price point even more.
