I was curious about the bridge replacement intervals?
Anyone familiar with this model? Personal experiences? Think it looks cool? I'll admit I sorta do, and the leg pads aren't as impressive as they once were on the ol mcrs. Thought about going full circle sorta retro rewind . I need two floating dees for my dsrt work and and large forward dees are nice feature on any harness.

Do all of them float or are the green circled ones stationary & what looks like two in the middle circled in purple float.. to many objects on my bridge irritates me..

I'd imagine it's pretty duarable.. I've always kinda thought the thick web bridges "looked" as if they were anyways, usually being doubled up & sewn together, etc.. I will say though, the very middle D's on that Ergo look skinny, if they are indeed seperate as id want to assume they'd abraid more that the ones circled in green would if they were straight instead of canted & used floating.

I think the two in middle float and the larger forward side Dees are non moving. At least that's what I hope..
i doubt buck would make them abrasive on that bridge. That bridge does look durable. I'd like to see a break test on that setup. They aren't the most robust looking floating dees I've seen. Wish I had a good local retailer I could go look and try...

I really like the looks of it. I was thinking about getting it and adding the bosun seat. It'd be like my old beloved Traverse but with forward Ds.

My Ergovation must be the OE.

I’ve got a real rope bridge on it.

The Ergo was designed to have any number of bridge and leg strap/ seat options. Other than the original Bry-Dan harness it is the only fully modular harness I know of.
