P&T Sport - which colour and which accessories??
MrsGeek · 23/03/2010 14:08
We've decided on the P&T Sport and will be buying it soon but I can't decide which colour to get. I think its between the red and the black - which do you think will wear better?
Once we have finished with it we'd like to be able to ebay it so want the colour that will show the least wear, any advice?
Also, what accessories should we get? I was thinking the P&T HangBag maybe but not sure if I would really use it or not.
Should we buy the slime stuff to go in the tyres?
Baby2 is due in June, do you think we buy the cocoon? I thought we probably won't need it. By the time the cold weather comes baby will be too big?
What about the P&T sleeping bags? Should I get one for baby for the winter? What about DD1, she'll be 16 months older, what age will they fit until?
All advice would be great, we're happy to spend on things we'll really get good use out of but can't afford to buy things and never use them IYSWIM.

don't buy the cocoon at all or the sleeping bag yet.
slime tyres if you're going offroad.
get the minimum of stuff now, you can always get other things later.

I have a black one which has worn very well (actually for sale on ebay at the moment) I would definately recomend getting the panniers to hold all your stuff as the basket becomes the footwell when the doubles seat is on the back.

samson can you link me to your P&T on ebay? Was going to buy new but willing to look at second hand.

Ok I hope this works

Thanks thats great, you're right, the black does look like it has worn well.

i think black is best, we have a black one..
i liked the cucoon altho they do get quite hot so maybe not great for june, its so much easier 2 put them in and out with it tho, and seems comfier.. so i wouldnt rule it out cos u cd dress the baby not too warmly and put them in it, but see what u think @ the time if ur okay just putting them in without it?
i got the pannier bags and found them rubbish, so dont recommend those.
get some hooks to put if u wana hang shopping, i got some from ebay they have been useful
i dont think u will need a sleeping bag? i put a buggy snuggle on it for winter, many different brands should fit on u dont really need the p&t one itself
obviously the raincover too
