It always rains on you because you can't spell does.

Addis broom head, the black an white one. Change once every 6 weeks.

Weighs nothing amd beats the bentley hands down.

you forgot to mention that an addis broom head, does not have jets in it already or hose and y connector, some people do not have the time to sit there drilling out brushes etc, and for the time it takes it is cheaper to buy them IMO, as my time is limited.

yes but it takes moments to add two holes and a y piece and jets from another brush.

The addis brush is indeed really good,been using it for 6 weeks,not worn at all, just losing a few bristles mainly due to a slip of the drill when modifying ;D.

Overall the best light brush I've used,mind you it's pricey,£4.00 compared to the £2.00 bentley ;D

im currently using a bentley, its a nice light brush BUT the bristles splay and block the jets :( ive taken to rinsing the top of the window at the end of the clean by running the brush back and fore a few times, so the water runs down

I have tried the Addis brush above, but I found that the stiff bristles were too stiff for standard use and the soft bristles were just a little too soft when compared with the Bentley brush.

I do appreciate the need for a good lightweight all-round brush and at the moment I find that the Bentley is the best there is. I'm still waiting for that Gardiner bloke to get around to bringing out his fantastic new lightweight brush.

vikan rectangular, mono or flocked. just butcher it if you must have it lighter.
IMO the GOOD bit has priority over the LIGHT bit. ;)

IMO you can't have the good bit without the light bit  :)

It won't have a swivel option but we sell a swivel adapter already which will fit.
