    The light canvas fix-a-flat bag in my 575m has been eaten by something over the years and needs replacing. I checked and the bags seem to be NLA via dealers/Ricambi. If someone out there has one or knows where I could get one, it would be great to hear form you. I don't know, but assume the same or very similar bags could have been used on 360s, 550s. etc. Thanks.

    Thank you for your response Vetroresina. I have the complete inflator, just need the bag. The bag you have is exactly what I need, but I am hoping I can find someone with only the bag for less that 225 euro :). I will keep it in mind. Thanks again.

    I am looking for this "bag" as well but haven't had any luck. So my solution is to make one, but not having seen one in person, I need one question answered that I can't determine from the pics. Is the bag a fitted bag like the grey plastic bag or just is it just round? I'd like to make it as close to the original as possible. If someone can give me dimensions of the panels, that would be great.

    Wally, I will take measurements of my damaged bag and post them. I think the biggest challenge is finding a canvas material similar to the original.

    Think the pics here will get me close. On the other hand, if you want to send me your damaged bag, I can get even closer and I'll make one for you as well....

    The OEM bag would only be used for material, color matching, and sizing. No changes and it would be sent back to you with the new one. PM me if interested.

    Wally, I am about to upload some photos, and as I PM'd, will send you my bag. I think you need to have it to evaluate the material (it seems like a linen material and the draw string, etc.
