Posted: Thu 10:59 UTC Post subject: RE: Hand made ultralight ergonomic speed bar (less than90g) I wanted to make something similar also to save on weight compared to the bullet speed, but I wanted to use carbon or aluminium tubing for the steps instead of the plates, because they should be lighter.Īlso having tubes makes it less high and would prevent it to rub on your calves as it does with the bullet speed because of the high profile 'steps'.ĭid you try/ think about using tubes for the steps ? or why use plates ? I guess you got inspired with the bullet speed bar ?

Posted: Thu 9:23 UTC Post subject: RE: Hand made ultralight ergonomic speed bar (less than90g) Only concerns would be how fiddly it is to set up and durability.ĭitto what Josh said! Looks like exactly what I would like to have. Posted: Wed 20:29 UTC Post subject: RE: Hand made ultralight ergonomic speed bar (less than90g) Waiting for your opinions and excuse my bad English. For example, first step 35%, second 35% and third 30%.įor the moment I tried in harneses like XR7, VW x-alpsGTO, GTO light, Delight1, Delight2, Impress2, Exoceat, skycountry Sector, Kanibal Race 2 and skylighter and it works great. I can decide the % of travel on first and second steps. Other good feature is that can be adjusted on infinite lenghts.

This is to avoid presure on calves, to be adaptable to diferent speed system harness designs and to have the chance of pushing it with feet in paralel when pulley to pulley.

Third is carbon fiber 8mm pipe with PU pipe on sides. This speed bar is made with carbon fiber, dyneema and PU pipe.įirst and second steps are done with adjustable splices and carbon fiber plates.
