**reofix** · 16th December 2010, 20:18

Looking for the perfect campchair for my bike ... i know ... harden up!!!... but sick of wet grass ... hard ground ... rocks etc .. i just want a neat little package to turn into a comfortable chair of an evening so i can sink a few quiet ones in peace.. any ideas welcome ... stay off the old fuckers on beemers theme ... cheers

Not sure, but one that will also accomodate ya pipe and slippers

(FWIW, I find the tripods to be good enough. Light, small, and take the weight off feeble knees. If I need more comfort, I just get drunk, and fall over

).

katmandu have the blow-up chairs,we have a couple of camp chairs from the wearhaus that hold your drink,that we take on the bike and they even with them laying across the bike they are narrower than the panniers

Buy cheap ($10) chairs when you get to your destination and leave them in the bin when you leave. Saves carrying it around and the cheapies aren't really worth keeping anyway

they're like blow up dolls. cold and strange at first, but you get used to them, and they can go down on you in a flash.

The little tripod jobbies work for me.

We have the Kathmandu inflatables, bloody brilliant and thus far have not gone down on us .... only time I will say that!!!

Down side, when you turn up to destination totally knackered you have to blow them up UNLESS you have a high vol pump of some descripts.

The 3 legged ones are good if you want to keep it small & light. Plus they are actually cheaper from KTM than most other places

Ours have done 1000's of km's of touring now.

No pipe & slipper holders, but I bet Touratech could sort you out with something there ;-)

You can get fabric 'frames' for thermarest mattresses. Fold up the mattress, stick in the fabric and it works as a chair. Multi-purpose and less crap to carry.
