They've got some big rubber ones, looks like they are made out of a big lump of rubber. *I think

Post by: ftp on September 30, 2008, 06:41:07 pm: I've got the same as the pic but the pole hose wears it like mad. Looks like someone took a drill to it to make more holes but it's just wear. First one was a harder plastic i think. It's nothing disasterous - just a bit annoying. :)
