Gas availability in Europe

[bikepacker]

This is a duplicate of the topic in Bikes n Bits in order to increase awareness.

The lack of Coleman Gas in France has been the subject of many previous topics. I have spoken to representatives of 3 companies in France who say they will keep stocks in their stores.

These are: Decathlon, Intersport and Sport2000.

Usually you can find one of these in many French towns. lternatively Markhill do 2 different adapters to use with screw fitted stoves.

The Cartridge adapter, part number 92496000 take the piercable 190 gram cartridges and is much smaller and lighter than the Karrimor equivalent.

Also Markhill do an adapter to allow the use of Camping Gaz sealable canisters on screw threaded stoves. This is part number 924971000.

If using a gas stove other than a Camping Gaz, either or both adapters would be a sensible choice to take on a tour abroad.

Both adapters can be obtained from Chris Davidson Agency. Tel01665 510660 or email cmd@chrisdavidson.freeserve.co.uk
