ABR Radius Ring

[Steve Connally]

I got notification that Treestuff chose me to demo the new radius ring from ABR. It should arrive Monday and I will put it on the MCRS and give a full review. From the web it looks promising. I have a mini swivel on there now and I'll switch it and see how it all works out. Thanks Treestuff! Now if I could just get Stihl to have me field test some new saws I'd be complete. It's cool to demo something new. All the lucky dudes who had the rr and now have the akimbo during testing, I'm finally in the club. LOL

It does look sweet. Plus it has a two year wear warranty

Couldn't of happened to a nicer guy. And an honest guy.

Looking forward to your review, my current bridge swivel wore through my KM III in a matter of months, and the swivel itself has a pretty deep groove into it ... switched to a ring for now

That ring looks super large to me, if they built a swivel into it would be the ticket. I liked my swivel on my old saddle but not too sure how the wearing would affect my MCRS saddle.

I use an omni mini on my bridge... midline attachable, pulley for reduced wear, pretty good bend radius, swivel.it wouldn't work on Web bridge though

I think that pulleys provide the most bridge friendly surface for sure, however for me the height of them and the speed that it moves side to side are real turn offs. If you do dig a pulley the Hydra and OMNI are both great choices though.

I just got a radius ring, it's bigger than I thought, but it looks awesome. Can't wait to try it out.

I switched back to rings for the exact reason Nick mentioned above. Pulleys are just to fast for me, I prefer a little friction on my bridge slider.

I'd like to know how to get that kind of gig, JAMBO assistant and now beta tester. I'd still like to stress test an Akimbo. Good deal Steve, give us an honest review.

34 mm....DMM ring for me bend radius is a moot point...check the bends on the overhand knots that hold the bridge on the lower D's of a treemotion...just replace often...

 

[islandarb]

Just do it...often

I used many bridge pulley options years ago.....found them too smooth...lol...a simple ring is just that simple....A TM is just such a perfect harness to me....the 34mm DMM ring replaced the standard 40 as I run a pretty short bridge cause I jam only SRT 98%
