I'm sure i'll get a quick easy answer on this one but I can't seem to find it on Trango's site.

What exactly is the Red Mesh Cylindrical Strechy piece for? / where does it go?

I assume it's a protective sleeve. Much like you see on ice screws. I can't really imagine why you would need one though.

Yea I have no idea what its for. When I bought the Big Bro it was rolled up and shoved in the center with the instructions for use, so its not like it was protecting it at all.

As masters of marketing and presentation we understand that how beautiful the 'Bros look in the store is of the utmost importance to our customers. We also understand the need to play with the product while you're justifying the purchase to your wife ("Honest dear, I'll sew it up.") so we can't shrink wrap them like they are kielbasa.

The red mesh is the best thing we've found that protects the finish well and is removable so you can fondle your purchase.

Whoever the wingnut was who fondled the 'bro before you did stuffed it back in rather than rolled it on.

Maybe he was homophobic and had bigbro envy to boot? (bad combination right there)
