Crutches!

£350.

Yes those are the ones I saw. I suppose I'll have to bite the bullet and buy them!
What's €440 in proper money? Does any one know?

www.indesmed.com

Only marginally lighter if not the same as my present ones!

I've located some light weight ones, 520-570 gr each, including a folding pair which would be great for travelling. Still twice the weight of the ones you mentioned, but of course much lighter than the old style ones.

Do be careful though, as many of the lightweight ones have a maximum weight, either 90kg or 100kg- so do check first as they are so expensive.

Would be good to have the brand and item id number, etc, to search locally.
Or a link.

Night all !

Thanks!

Will do.

I've found a place on the French google. It has them at £170 each .ineed two its a company in Madrid!
I would be very grateful if any of you French GNers could ask at your local pharmacie about them?
Or in Germany?
The latest ones weigh about 220g each , mine which are the lightest English 1 1/2 lbs each
I think you can see why I want cf ones

Set up an import/export business and give up the day job?

No those are the same composition as mine! The cf ones are unobtainable in England unless you order 600 from China.

Googled them + UK and found loads of crutches, but not sure if any are what you want. If you can get them abroad somewhere, can you order from them and get them delivered?

Alternatively is you know where to get them in France, and they don't deliver to UK, you could order them and get delivered to my friend just across the border, and I could bring them when we come late September/october. We will come via Dover to Guildford, then Dartmouth then Market Harborough. And if you can get them in Switzerland, get them delivered to us, and then as above.
Bonne chance.

Hi Jeni...not sure if these are carbon fibre as it doesn't say what they're made of but they look very like the walking poles that I use.
