    Pro-box extreme peanut

    Well the pro-box extreme peanut arrived today and first impressions are good! the leather is nice and it is very solidly put together it is sized inbetween the Everlast 6x4 and THE Everlast 5x8 a really nice size and a nice fat shape although i may have it pumped up a bit hard in the pictures the loop is of very thick leather and should last forever, i will put it through its paces at the weekend and let you all know what i think and if i am feeling really energetic i might even make a video.

    Wow! That is a very rugged-looking bag. Can probably take a heck of a beating. Congrats!

      It's starting to look more like me. Somewhere between a six pack and a case. I have to loosen my laces to fit around my bag belly. Time to start "punch and riding" again.

      Hope it hits well.

              Fingers, let us know if it gives a larger, more forgiving sweet spot.

              Looks well made.

                Well even though i have a heavy cold i tried the peanut out today!!

                Performance...7

                durability.......9

                speed...........8

                balance.........7

                Price.............9

                overall a good solid bag made to take a pounding, i like the fact the seams are on the inside so it is kind to the hands in winter, it is slightly out of shape but i think this will rectify itself with use and the loop is a bit stiff also time will wear this in, i think i will get a lot of use out of it as it is an ideal size,so if you want a solid fast cheap bag i would recommend it. oh and Tim a video will follow soon.

                  Sounds like it's worth all that £20 then. Thanks for the review fingers.

                    Now there's a true baggist, hitting the bag when sick.

                    Fingers, take it easy and get better quick. We love your bag reviews.

                        Well i had some spare time so i gave this bag a real workout!!.....and the bladder burst i could of sent it back but with the cost of postage it was hardly worth it when i took the bladder out it is tiny about the size of an orange!! so i put in a spare Cleto reaes bladder i had and what a difference it is now a well balanced quality bag! slightly heavier than before but it handles like a dream.....well that could just be me of course!

                          Thanks for sharing that fingers. Can't believe the bladder popped. You should give them a call and ask them to send you a spare bladder...at least. Must be the size of those fists.

                              Perfect! I used my spare Cleto Reyes bladder in the Title. Did you over inflate the bag fingers? It's kind of put me off buying one.
