Whichever rope you decide to use for the replacement bridge should have a Polyester mantle. Polyester has far superior abrasion resistence than any of the Aramids.

 

I understand that experimenting with different cords might be interesting. We played with a number of cords during prototyping and testing and obviously settled on the selected spec for a reason. If the CE status of your treeMOTION is relevant to you, there is only one cord that is approved.
