The pants and knee armor was ordered on the 8th this month. They gave a tracking number but, I don't read Israeli or Hebrew or whatever language they used. I mean no disrespect in any way about that. 11 days delivery time. That's really good in my book. It was packaged in a bag like package. Well taped and labeled. The pants are mad from a denim fabric that stretches or gives a bit. I ordered a size larger than usual. They fit well. Not loose and not too snug. Knee armor pockets are slid in from the outside through a zippered opening. There is also 2 net pockets with Velcro closures inside on the sides. For the Hip armor? The pants are a bit long but, I guess that's for being able to be shortened. Kevlar at but and knee areas. 3 front pockets, 2 and a pocket watch size and 2 on the backside. Lots of belt loops.
In the mailbox was the bead balance kit that was ordered Monday via ebay vender. $19.00 to the door. About 1/2 of what is wanted in the stores. Coming from California it didn't take long. Came in a sturdy cardboard box. In the kit was 2- 2oz packets of ceramic beads and a squeeze bottle with a hose and cap. No instructions. I have read else where that for 19" front wheels that 1oz is used. One takes off all other weights and the remove the valve stem. Using the bottle with the hose , one sucks the amount of beads into the bottle and then blows them into the wheel through the valve stem. I may do that later tonight. I would guess that more could be added if needed.
I will post pics after I find my digital camera. My phone camera died.
