    requesting pics?

    I was just curious if people could share some pics of how snug the Incubator is around a WBBB 1.7?

    I am trying to decide on this UQ and another, but cant find really good pictures showing how snug this fits around it.

    I have no pix but I know it fits well. I helped a feller get a proper fit with his. He just needed to tighten up main suspension and a wee snug on the secondary.

    thanks Shug ... so just possibly a little adjusting is all that is need to get the proper snug fit at both ends? Is this and adjustment that would need to be done every time?

    A wee bit but once you have it fitted for that hammy you are 99% there. UQs can be perplexing when you first get them but just don't be afraid to tighten it up so that it lifts the hammock up when empty.

    The main suspension will hold. Trust me. I have tested the limits of several without the shock-cord breaking. Worry not.
