If you are going to carry balloons the will stand up to the task other wise build a frame
Gents,
I would like some input with regards to the strength of Series 3 SWB hood sticks,
what sort of load would you think they would be happy to endure?
if i was to work out a way of mounting a rack to them, Do you think they would need beefing up?
if evenly distributed across the rear and front sticks what do you think they could carry in their standard guise?
answers on a postcard.....

I thought that might be the response!
thanks,
"how strong are hood sticks?" They aren't.
They are strong enough to support the canvas. Period.

I had better get thinking then!
thanks John,
Yup, canvas is about the load limit.
Cheers Rod
We've been using this set up for the last 15 years of inland and outback travel. We carry all our sleeping gear, extra blankets, extra warm clothing, a big tarp and anything that needs to stay clean and dry, and readily accessible, in the basket under the "roof".
That basket is a stroke of genius!
Looks like a very ingenious idea. I would tend to keep support of any weight away from the middle of the hoops.
