Duotone Chickenloop on Cabrinha QR

Postby chibern » Wed Feb 20, 2019 10:48 pm

Has anybody tried attaching the duotone Rope harness chickenloop on a Cabrinha QR?

The fixed ends look pretty similar - set screw through a looped plastic cylinder.

The "click" end is what possibly looks problematic. Not sure if the length and width of the "hole" are compatible.

Thanks!

i think that,the "click" end is much bigger in the duotone chicken loop and does not fit in the cab bar

the north rope slider fits the Ozone bar system ,that is fact, and fits just great.
the reason anyone would want to use this chicken loop is the little stainless steel fixing on the loop where the rope rubs as you move around.
it's the best solution to reducing any wear problems or sticky chicken loop rubber which can itself wear badly.
I don't know if it fits any other bar, it looks good for the Cabrinha as you show.

Cool, thanks Foil!

Hopefully, someone can confirm/deny Cab bar compatibility before I spend $60 to test it out :-)

I suppose if it doesn't fit directly, I could try pulling out the Duotone line and threading a shortened Cab line through...

Like Foil said, it would give the Cab bar a nicer direct connection to a rope slider spreader bar. Less wear on the CL and rope and a slightly closer reach. Right now, the other options require something like a Dakine Option bar or an intermediate connector like an SS ring/Antal ring/pulley/etc.

I think the metal square on the North/Duotone QR is too wide to fit into the Cab QR. The metal square and buckle are pretty narrow on the Cab QR. I think you may have better luck with SS talon, but I expect that will not work either.
