Geez was out doing an island tour now I missed this WTF....I would have it all. Can never have enough wrenches. My fav tether. Kick myself...was not for me.....
 
Is the phlotich a bearing or bushing pulley?
I can't answer that question? How do you tell the difference? How can one even feel the difference for that matter? I had a few of the DMM Rapide and the regular DMM hitch climber pulleys and tried to tell myself that the more expensive Rapide was better, but it wasn't.

I never had the rapides but I can def feel the difference from bearing to bushing.
 
As a hitch climber pulley, there is no significant advantage to the Rapide... but as a canopy anchor pulley, there's a lot less drag. This also alters the performance of the climbing device, though. With a ZigZag, it's a little "jumpier"... a bit smoother with the bushing version, and considerably smoother with a R+R friction saver. So, there's a tradeoff. The Rapide is smoother on ascent, with less drag, which might be more important to someone who is comfortable with handling their mechanical with the lowered drag. It is also nice for other applications, like speedlines, redirects, etc. where less drag is nice. The pulleys are actually very nice/handy for light rigging applications.

Just remember to keep a firm grip on your miscellanies. And, always wear a thingy.
