Rope Wrench feedback

[silky fox]

Set up a new thread Albere i reckon..."Spiderjack Srt Mod." or something. This is Ian,s Rope Wrench thread and we don,t want to derail what is a very cool R.W thread.

Looks good Joe. When I said tight bend radius on the Becket I meant it would be better on the rope if it was bigger. Too tight a bend causes weakening of the rope at that point. How was ascent on that setup?

Looks good. What can you tell us?

Price?

Release date?

Anodised & shiny????

I dont like the look of it personally, would prefer to see more of a change, i dont like the bolts would rather it be completly sunken with nothing for the things to get caught on. Would look nice milled out of solid metal.

Really good, better on bigger ropes than the ZK1, Being able to add and remove a solid tether is handy, really good build quality.

 

Price, release date - Not for me to say or know sadly - I only test what im asked to by Stein and ISC.

 

It is anodized and was shiny but i have been using it in all conditions since may. Id like to see it in bright orange personally as i feel bland colours are easy to loose.

The blots are all rounded edges, with one being fixed, the rear one being able to be released with an alley key and the top pin is the midline pin. Not sure if your looking at the old one and thinking its the new one??

 

Because of its size i have found its easier to pass branches as the rope runs close but in fairness, after a few climbs its really easy anyway.

No im looking at the new one IMO it needs to really change to warrant people buying the second one, i would rather see completley flush sides with no bolt heads prodruding, e.g. if they were sunk into the body to make it super streamlined, also a hole built in to the body of the wrench to clip the Lots or any other chest advancment system in would make it more of a complete pacakge rather than having to make your own.
