Hello All,
I’ve had to go over to a carbon bottle as cannot manage the 12l steel anymore .
The carbon 9l whilst lightweight etc could benefit from a little protection IMO from a padded bag possibly or from something else ?
What are others using ?
Thanks,
Vard.
 
I’ve found this stuff .

Beaver Cylinder Mesh

Beaver cylinder mesh provides protection to your cylinder from the knocks and scrapes that happen during every excursion.

Will do as one layer .
With a bag on the outer as well could be an option .

That's what I had my 6.9L in. It is the 70cm height one but I don't know the dimensions of the 9L cf. This bag has an internal measurement of around 20cm diameter.

Here's an illustration. A 3L cf and a 1.1L Weekender in it. And no, I don't keep or transport the bottles like this, it's a pose for illustration. Obviously just showing width, really, the two of them would disappear if pushed to the bottom of the bag. :ROFLMAO:

If it works why not ? I’ve got an old Kip mat inside a gun slip for some added protection . The closed cell foam is good stuff 👍
 
Midwater bag is great, just dont expect delivery in anything resembling a sensible time frame.
