Re: Cabrinha 03
Recoil bar seems to be over. I understand the reasoning behind the 2 tubes on the new bar (untwisting part), but I think it makes the bar less clean and more cumbersome.

Re: Cabrinha 03
Awesome. I hope this all goes well for cabrinha. The new bar looks perfect, I imagine the double PU untwist system will work as well as cores. I wish I could order one today.
Would also like to know more about this HT Dacron, they say “exclusive to the nitro” in one place but then it says
“HTD for enhanced arc stability and improved handling characteristics” and “HTD hybrid frame” for both the switchblade and FX.
Then for the contra and moto it says it’s built with “HTD lite”
So if someone can untangle the differences between HT, HTD, and HTD lite I would appreciate it.
