Momentum Adventure Bowler DCPU
Not sure this vid's been distributed before. What's interesting to me is how much better the Bowler Fast Road suspension (Bilstein, Springs, ARB etc) copes with the rolling bumps. Looks quite smooth and planted rather than the back-end bouncing around all over the place:



This led to another great video from Iceland:



Which in turn led to a great video on a genuine Bowler 'Spectre' SVX DCPU Concept.



I'll leave it at that. Enjoy Thumbs Up Monsieur Le Grenadier

I've not been everywhere, but it's on my list.....

Great video's. I follow Momentum but hadn't seen that one. I do like the Bowler sill protectors and Fire & Ice side steps! Grenadier, I hold you entirely responsible for adding this to my list! Might have to keep an eye out for a second-hand set!

First photo is epic. Mrs Grenadier actually said she prefers the look of the DC with a roll cage (apparently without it just looks like a 'Pimped Truck Shocked ), which is always positive as it means more easily released funds Rolling with laughter

I know it's basically style over substance, but I absolutely love the webbing. I'd probably just keep it to the sides, not the rear. Also, I've no need for a snorkel, plus I prefer flat racks, rather than with edges, but roughly speaking this is where I am heading. Lastly, falling in love more and more with 'Havana' as my colour of choice, if I ever get funds together for a re-spray. Yet to find a photo of a DCPU in Havana though.

Don't the steps defeat the object of the cill protection? Confused Darren
