smufter Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 (edited) Morning chaps! Just bought a new Tempest V2 brolly and contemplating getting a couple of accessories for it, namely the skull cap and mozzie insert.Looking at prices, I can get the Cyprinus versions for £108.00 compared to the Trakker jobbies at £145.00. Quite a saving!Does anybody know whether the Cyprinus parts are identical to the Trakker's with regards quality and colour??I don't want my new brolly to end up various shades of green or buy inferior products!Help appreciated.Rob Edited March 22, 2019 by smufter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmcee Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 A mate of mine has got the cyprinus Brolly system which I think is a copy of the Aqua fast and lite. He can't fault it. I had a Brolly overwrap from them, easily 5 yrs old and never leaked in that time. smufter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They even come in the Trakker/Aqua boxes. emmcee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmoputney Posted March 23, 2019 Report Share Posted March 23, 2019 Anyone tried the cyprinus bedchairs there is a lightweight one for brolleys and shelters that looks pretty useful only weighs 7.3kg and only £70 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent bedchair - I use the Wychwood version. elmoputney 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmoputney Posted March 25, 2019 Report Share Posted March 25, 2019 Thanks yonny I will have a look at those I think, I quite liked the look of the tactical as you can get in big boy version as well and it's still fairly light yonny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmoputney Posted August 5, 2019 Report Share Posted August 5, 2019 I've been looking for a mozzie mesh for my cyprinus magnetix brolly and have been advised by cyprinus that a v1 tempest mesh will fit, are there any major differences between the v1 and the v2 in size as I have found a v2 bivvy mesh for £26.99 it looks the same but anyone know if it is Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmoputney Posted August 5, 2019 Report Share Posted August 5, 2019 This one is the v2 one https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F232727934220 This is the v1 mozzie mesh he recommended https://www.cyprinus.co.uk/products/cyprinus-front-mesh-v1-fits-the-trakker-tempest-v1-brolly-perfectly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
