just came across this post, out of interest if you were going to use an ascender would you simply use a carabiner to join it to the pulley? wouldn't the pulley fall off, tell me if im sounding thick haha

Its an excellent bit of kit. Very very simple and very very effective. It sas quick to use as can be. Well worth it IMO. I use in conjunction with the rc2000.

Digging up an old thread here but does anyone use the pretensioning pulley on a regular basis? Or has anyone tried it with a mechanical ascender to speed it up a bit? Toying with the idea of adding one to my bag of shiney things!

Rock exotica do you the best of both worlds with their pulleys, ALLOT stronger too then you can use it with the cheek located for general re-directs too, multi purpose, much higher quality ,manufacture, no brainier if you ask me

Isn't the rock exotica omni for 13mm ropes though?

Yeah but i bent the stein one pretty easily about a year ago. Its good for ease of tension because one side is open. But like the post before said there are other bits on the market.

I think if the omni was 16mm I'd definitely get one as it's much more multipurpose, trouble is I've got plenty of pulleys for redirects just wanted something idiot proof for pretensioning the line, so figured the stein coupled with a mechanical ascended would haves worked quite well. How did you bend it?

looked at the aztec block? can do a few more things.

[Dave Alviti]

I don't think the Aztec blocks are mid line attachable on there own? and again not 16mm, and the whole Aztec pulling set up would completely befuddle some of the guys I work with!
