mblnFERCr May 2012 10:44am, 25 May 2012 214 posts	0 mblnFERCr I was lucky (?) enough to get a free Olmo 5 this week, but cant quite figure out how to adjust it so the bottles aren't trying to rub my nipples out. Anyone got any tips, or am I just the wrong shape/size/whatever for it?

I also use smaller bottles than the ones provided and that helps. I love mine though, apart from it rubbing slightly on the back of my neck. How did you get a free one? Mine cost a bloody fortune!!!

I'm only trying the Raidlight 'cos it was free SpeedyMel, Ive tried that and the bottles just end up in front of my arms :(, though maybe I'm taking it too far. I'm really happy with the size of it, esp. in the hot weather I need as little insulating me as possible. Got it from a guy on an RW forum who wasn't using it and offered it to a good home, aren't runners a friendly bunch?

Got something to say?
