[Crapsterface]

And i forgot to mention the leather made my knuclkles feel really cool. Like ther was ointment on them or somthing. Mabey just me no one else i hit it with seemed to think so. Im stoked aswell.

It's made from goats head skin. Crapster is right, they are easy on the hands.

When are you taking delivery?

wow really cant wait ill like bags that are easy on my scissors i mean hands - its supposed to arrive on the 21st i think so ill give a full report!cant wait!

super fast

hey Scissor, its all been said ,man its fast.what Craps said is true,you just start to laugh.Roc was good enough to leave his here for me.I've had about 15 mins on it and have started to pick up the speed but more time is needed.It will depend on what swiv you use and how much air you put in the ball as to how fast it ends up.after my short burst i put up another ball for my daughter and it was like it was slow motion big difference.so Scissor get plenty of grease for the bottom of those shoes man,but if anybody can do spins on a Cleyto it will be you.all the best deano

Video wizardry, please! FYI, Cleto Reyes is one of several Mexican speed bag brands, not sure if any of the others have been imported -- or measure up to the Cleto.

ok from what ive seen a few of you here have used a cleto reyes bag.looks like you all like it. now can anyone tell me what size cleto is closes to the everlast 6x4? i think maybe UK and fingers might know.and is cleto your favorite bag? any opinions?thanks- scissorhands

Here's a little link I found.

Cleto Reyes Speed Bag, winner of 5th Best speed bag

At least that's the opinion of Jeff Wilson. I Never heard of him, but he's a Jersey, so maybe you can hook up.

Hey Alan, I actually saw this when i was doing a search. My cleto should arrive tommorrow so ill see for myself and give a full review. So far for me everlast is the best - i really like the weight and size. Lets see how the xs Cleto matches up.....to be continued.......SBSH

Monday the 21st December!! officially CLETO day!!

[SpeedBagScissorhands]

cleto first thoughts........

ok the cleto arrived i tried outside very briefly in 15 inches of snow. it is smaller than the everlast xs. the hard loop seems to take the mobility away from the bag- which i do not like!. i will test it more tonight indoors and get a real feel. maybe it needs to be broken in. as for the speed......shouldnt be a problem. ill give a more detailed report later. SBSH
