Thu Apr 25, 19 6:10 pm Mystic Clickbar with Slider Rope: anyone tried it? |
|
|
How well does it work? Does slider rope wear quickly? Unintended "unclicks" while riding?
Thanks,
Eric |

Hey Eric,
We sell them and they were very popular in 2019. The rope lasts a long time and is easy to tighten or replace. However the new Stealth bar will be out in a month and is a serious entry into the slider bar market. The best I've seen. Worth waiting for.

Thank you for sharing , that looks like a slick design. I am curious how the Mystic rope attaches to the spreader bar and is the rope easily replaced? _________________ Slingshot | Ride Engine |Try before you buy | PM me

I'm out of touch, maybe this is silly or not. But would the Stealth fit onto a Ride Engine waist harness? _________________ CGKA Member

Yes, Ride Engine is compatible with Mystic Stealth bars. Not the old Ride Engines, just the newer ones with the webbing straps _________________ Windance Boardshop- Hood River

Does look promising. The wear I am getting now on my current bar is where the rope comes through the bar, not where the chickenloop slides. I am getting about 10 sessions per rope. |

I was playing with a few in the shop this week and there was one, I can't remember which brand, but it seemed like the rope wasn't going to be replaceable. Surely I'm wrong but I couldn't figure it out for the life of me.
One did have a clever little cleat one one side though. Looked like a solution for the rope being loose. |

This looks pretty cool. Is there a video of how it latches somewhere? |

Eric. What year RE harness do you have? My 2016-17 had a burr in that stainless hole where the Amsteel passes through. I also would get 10 session. Ride Engine will replace no-charge. _________________ CGKA Member
