Vikan 11" mono ... best brush (in my opinion) just wish they were lighter.

Still, when your talking low height its not really a problem.

ive got the 10in brodex standard brush i got with my hydra pole on mine.great for cleaning little georgian windows! ;) ;D ;D

ive just converted an old unger optiloc extension pole.nice and light and compact! ;) ;D ;D

although when i get a lighter pole with a short collapsed length i probably not use it much!i find it a pain changing poles all the time(the 25ft hydra is too big and heavy!)
price higher/work harder!

My Super lite has only lasted 4-5 mths. Ordered a replacement last week
