Mate, they are literally 0.2mm or so. Available on fleabay, or make one from a tin of lager!

Or the really stylish and intelligent rider buys an Elina UL Snakepost and gets one for free!  :daumenhoch:

Cheers clean, tried the tin thing but couldn't manage it, kept tearing, need something more rigid.
