    Anyone recommend a place to get one of these?

    I have a 4 foot pvc, but it's time for an upgrade. There's a reebok one in argos for 109, but it looks quite skinny.

    I can't go into the ma / boxing part on that site. I think it's broken.

    Had (stupidly) forgotten about mullens, thanks dancor. One of the lads in bridgestone works there. I'll ask him.

    Any other suggestions?

    your better off spending the money and getting a good one mate


    mullens are very bad for bags for thai, tey fall apart quite easily... i dont know about starfitness so cant comment


    you might as well splash out and get one from the uk

    www.kickboxingshop.com has served me well in the past it a thai gym that run it so anyhitng on it gonna be good for ya


    you know yourself it wud break your heart to pay 100 odd euro for a bag and it break in a few weeks...

    Definitely. I suppose this is a bit of an investment alright. I got the PVC one a bit cheaper to make sure I'd actually make use of it and I have.

    Those sandee ones on that site look savage, but they're pretty pricey. 200 euro before delivery. I'm sure they'd last a lifetime though. Booking my ticket to Thailand tonight. The ol' wallet's getting a bit of a raping this January.

    What about picking up one from the US, and then filling it yourself?

    I've just bought a load of gear for the club and at a pretty decent price.

    Hehe. Yeah, I'm heading over on the 8th of March (flights are booked, can't fookin' WAIT). Would it be that much cheaper over there?

    Rob: Where did you get your gear from if you don't mind me asking?
