Had them for some time here. The thermaglaze ones are an extra 87p which I personally feel is a tad on the high side.

"Fenestration"? Why would anyone want a window in their snurble gripthribley? It just doesn't make sense.

Doesn't that make them too brittle for normal use?

They're not intended for 'normal use' dear. These are the fenestrated ones so obviously any enhancement to the glazing should be worth it in this climate.

They are lighter and stronger when fenestrated.

That's all very well, but how often, in real life, would you ever need a fenestrated one? Duncan yacht chandlers in Scotland Street, Glasgow, sell a perfectly acceptable traditional model in stainless steel for a fraction of the cost of one of these stupid carbon fibre fenestrated bullocks.

Rubbish, the glass is heavier than the cut out it needed for it & putting holes in things is bound to weaken them.

The only benefit is that it might see you thro the season.
