Fiamma Magic Rafter Pro

[Euro330]

My sons bought me this for my birthday back in September.
John Cross useing Funster discount.
Could`nt really think of anything so suggested this. I thought it was a bit gimmickie and was going to make 1 up myself.
Anyhow they wanted to get me it so they did.
1st time I put it on although fine, where the Fiamma bar knuckles (bike carrier fittings) pushed into the canvas it caused a `V` in the canvas from the bar to the front of the canopy.
I bought 4 x 1m Lengths of pipe Lagging (22mm centre) from Screfix for about £3.50 and fitted them on to give the bar an even fit along the length of the canvas. The Lagging has a split along the length so easy to fit.
Works and looks great fitted on.

be interested what you think after a few days in hot sun . i was looking at one bout was concerned it would stretch the awning canvas in hot sun.

I could of course be completely wrong.. it has been known..

Yeah considered that. Sure Fiamma have aswell. Dont expect much stretch in the canvas really, probably more from when 1st new. The canopy tensioner will take care of that I am sure.

I have one in my garage somewhere, I bought it to use in Spain with the Safari room but it’s not intended to be used like that, only with the awning. Don’t believe that I will ever use it so may try and sell it when I get home in April along with the whole lot.
