On previous trips to the Zoo, I've usually just worn my regular helmet and leg armour, but after my crash at Whistler which involved a trip to the Emergency Room, a tube stuck in my arm and several shots of intravenous anti-biotics, I've been packin' around my new arm armour and my full face helmet as well. At the Zoo, like any good hill, you have to ride up to ride down and since I don't usually wear my armour on the climb up, I strapped it all on the back of my hydro-pac and stuffed my helmet over one side of the handlebars. Up we go.
On the climb up, I noticed that my damn helmet kept banging into my kneecap and since my legpads were strapped to my back, it started to get just a little aggravating. Time to readjust things. I tried strapping the helmet to the pads, strapped to the hydro-pac, strapped to my back. Not too comfy either I might say. On the rest of the climb, I made a mental note: "figure out a way to strap the bucket to something other than the hydro-pac".
Three weeks later, I found myself with the gang back at the Zoo, but this time I came prepared. With me, I had brought the Full Face Helmet Handlebar Ancillary Topend Transporter Coil or as we like to call it - the fat coiler. The gang was duly impressed and as everyone gathered around to marvel at this new bike accessory, the obvious question arose "How does it work ?", which always leads to "Did you bring one for me ?". Answer: "it's complicated" and "No". Since some of the gang is craniumly challenged, I decided that an Owner's Manual would be required, complete with step-by-step mounting instructions and important safety, performance and maintenance information.
So there you have it, the Real Story Behind the Fat Coiler and if you find that - "During the long, tedious, uphill fire road climbs on a full suspension rig while wearing a full face bucket, you, the gravitationally challenged soon notice a lot of huffing, puffing and wheezing..." - this product could be right for you.
