Rupe

You're making me feel old!

Another good point in the video, and true from my experience now, the two attachment holes for MRT differ in that one (the closest ) gives optimum slavk tending efficiency, while the second hole is not do good. So, those earlier saying the ZZ just swallows any slack that is intentionally put into their system, this does solve that issue.

Thanks, I think!

Yeah,it's fiddly though.

Sorbus has stock I think? I think you have to remove the rope from the bottom part, but not necessarily all of the links, and that will give enough space to remove the swivel. Not possible with rope fully in there. I'll take a pic tomorrow.

The RRP has more of a flat plate that pushes against the rope doesn't it? Similar idea though, the more weight the more pressure.

Are you climbing again then Steve?

For those who haven't got to see one in the flesh yet, the difference from the ZZ is the solid bar that pushes against the rope below the flexing zig zag section. I guess this is what allows it to work in different set ups. The more weight applied the more pressure it puts on the rope. The ZZ doesn't do that. You can see it just above the red body of the device. That part will wear eventually though I'm sure

Added a magneato thingy, works as it should. I think ISC should make something specific for the Reflex, in red/black

Hi Folks Its been interesting reading this thread, everyone excited about product but doubtful it will be any good at the same time, then boredom set in while waiting for the bloody thing to turn up and convo drifted off to Duran Duran FFS! The I was expecting lots of pics of it in use now that many seem to have got hold of one, but no, just the one chap in NZ, Hi! So, I've had mine for about 2-3 weeks now, and basically I doubt I'll use anything else again, what with being so old and all that! I've had 3 or 4 ZZ's, a 1st gen now in the bin, a mark2 and a mk3 with extra holes for Chicane. I recently replaced the third one as it was slipping on Adrenaline which is what I mostly use. I also recently bought a RRP and was getting the hang of it nicely. Loving the midline attachment which gives so many more initial set up options for SRT access and no more holding onto the ZZ while you pull half the rope through it to, and also getting to use both ends of the rope has got to be better for the rope? So the Reflex looked like a good idea to me! Had one on Pre order from Sorbus and got it a couple of weeks ago. I would say that it does everything it says it would. I'm only 85kgs these days (some might not believe that) plus kit, so I can use it fine without any extra friction devices added. The removable swivel is not easy to remove when the rope is installed so its not that much of a bonus, I doubt I'll use it that way. Used with Adrenaline I would say that the self tending in DRT is exactly the same as the ZZ. If you have enough rope weight below yhou and you pull in towards the Reflex it will self tend. Then switching to srt is great without adding any extra kit. For cinching onto a stem it works great, more on that later though................

Subaru number 10 I think

Has anyone seen the 2016 film "Trespass against us"? Starring Michael Fassbender? À ceux qui nous ont offensés (2016) - IMDb WWW.IMDB.COM 1h 39m | R In the intro (and trailer) he's driving a subaru estate. The favourite get away car of the family the film is based on who used to be based around these parts.

Occasionally still about!

I've just bought one, so will find out how good it is. Its got a 3m tipper on it and I'm in the process of adding tool storage. But its going to be the spare back up truck for carrying excess chip occassionally and logs and debris etc, also for stump grinding and delivering machinery to sites etc so not a full time arb-truck as such.

Hi. No I don't work weekends, but thank you for the offer.
