Hi, I just got a new B2 and I was wondering if can take the hook off and fit the Spectre Slider? What part do I need?
Thanks

If your B2 has the C-Bar 2.0 spreader bar (see link below), then Yes you can remove the hook and install the Webbing Rope found on the Spectre and C-Bar. Don't forget to order the Webbing Clamp as well. The only thing I'm pretty sure you won't be able to get is the Spectre Mini-Rope set-up since the C-Bar is not designed for it. Maybe it can be mod'ed?

If you do have the C-Bar, then make sure to order this specific Webbing Rope, not the Spectre version. They look to be separate items.

I have the C bar 2.0, so I will need the webbing rope and a clamp? Which one is the clamp? Thanks

Regarding the Webbing, the 2.0 originally came with a Rope. It then changed to Webbing for 2020. You can find the Rope still on closeout. If you get the Rope, make sure to get this anchor plate.

I will say that the Webbing is a much better set-up from my experience. I hope to see more brands adopting this.

So Ion uses a Dyneema webbing. I see that it sells for 40 euros. I measured the width of mine at 11 mm. I haven't found it here in the states but I was looking at the dyneema Metolius climbing slings at REI.

$5.95 for 25cm. $8.95 for 60cm. That should be enough 2 make 2. Anyone see any problems with this? I can easily sew the one end and get the extra clamp mentioned in the posts above. It would be nice to have a spare or two.

Looks like Greenhat stocks the Ion replacement webbing (US based shop)

I've been looking at doing the same as you were thinking, but I have my eye on Mammut's Magic 12.0 sling. The improved abrasion and UV resistance is quite appealing. Also if you weren't up to sewing, it looks like you can tie a knot without as much worry
