BF II bridge

[BostonBull]

I know its here somewhere but I couldnt find it. Does a longer or shorter bridge put you in a more up right working position? I find myslef leaned back a bit more than id like to be. What is the optimal length that everyone has found to work? Is this dependant on height of the climber?

i hear you about the leanback man.

gonna have to get used to it. i have the bridge they sent with it on. it was the shorter of the 2 they offer.

other than that and the slipping waist belt i like it.

just like anything else, it takes a minute.

i hated the bashlins i am running at first because i started on the kleins (different gaff) but now i like em.

OTG might have something for you though. i am still waiting for him to fill me in on this "magic pulley" trick he got going on.

I spliced a short (9") bridge that I much prefer over what comes with the BII. I'm trying something else right now, but I like the spliced one.

Do you find that this changes your work position?

Paul Sisson gave a great solution and explanation about fine tuning a BFI harness that could be used on the BFII and maybe other harnesses too.

no more leanback

added length to the risers with shackles and web slings. also swapped out the bridge for a piece of 1/2in. bluestreak. I'm not sure if these mods would fly at a comp, but it sure did make a world of difference in the comfort of the saddle.

:hmm3grin2orange: :hmm3grin2orange: Absolutely! Didn't I give you some slings to lengthen your risers with?
