Will Ozone V8 Edge Bar Fit Chrono V2?

Postby apos0 » Tue Jun 07, 2016 1:12 pm

I was wondering if it will fit at it is without any adjustments. I am not worried about the brake line as I can add one.

Thanks

Yes, I used a regular ozone bar with my chrono when I had it. Used the same bar for my edges.

You don't need the brake strap, but some people like it.

I don't think you should fly your edges with a brake strap on the bar. If that brake staple got in your hook it would be bad news on an inflatable. That's my thought anyway, someone correct me if I'm wrong about that.

The control &/or race bars look very similar to the bar that comes with the Chrono V2 - I would think it should work

Quick question, anyone knows what setting should I use connecting race bar to the kite? I am talking about the top end of the lines where the 3knots are located. I would image the middle one, but wanted to double check.
Thanks

I like the brake strap! Add one or its a pain in the arse landing in higher winds.

No you must only use the bar from the same brand and for the specific model. They teach this in kiteschool. If you don't your head will explode if and when you can connect the lines.


But seriously yes you will want a brakestrap or some balls. Personally I like the balls and prefer the feel. You may think 2 is enough but you must try a few extra at the same time. Plummet is not fan though as you can see, they cause him pain.
