dye cocker - race grip or eblade?

[judiff]

can anyone help me pls?

i got a 2002 dye ultralite cocker and im upgrading it to an electro but im not sure whether to go for a race grip or eblade.

the price ive had for an eblade, nexus ram and qevs is £270 (2nd frame) and £480 for a race grip with 45 ram.

obviously theres a massive price difference but is it worth it?

Each grip has it own.........'feel'........

I suggest that you try each one before parting with all that cash.....

It's like getting married without ever 'shaggin the bird.....

Once you've done it, you'll never be able to afford another.....

As Wingnut said, try both before you buy, but i am sure that Belsales have race grips for a lot less than that.

people will try to convince you as to the benefits of each, but try both, and go with what you feel to be right. Both have uniquely distinguishing characteristics that are user friendly. It just depends what kind of user you are

I have never tried the Race trigger, but i have my Ultralight E-bladed and it is sweet, it RIPS.

The Eblade feels more like an angel trigger, and the race feels more like a mech cocker to me. They both rip, and as above would suggest you try before you buy!!

My money is on the eblade.

God i wish Angel triggers felt like the e-blades....i might actually consider buying one then. I havn't used a single angel where i liked the feel of the the trigger, they are allway too 'flappy' and dont feel snappy enough (like the magnetic EBlade). Oh and that includes the A4s that i've fiddeled with. The trigger on the race cand be set up in numerous ways, as far as i know. It can be set up so it is like a swing trigger or more like a traditional mech slide trigger

Of course i recomend that you try both, althougth the price kinda speaks for itself. Although im allmost certain the Race isnt quite that expensive. If u can't seperate the frames by performance/preference the go wich one is the funkiest looking. I personally perfer the look of the eblade with the LED display and the slick solenoid cover, but the advantage the Race has is that you can put regular 45 grips onto the frame. That way you could put some nice slick looking Dye stickies on it to match your ultralight.

The choice, as they say, is yours.

Really?! I felt the other way, the race when set short was like an LCD trigger but the eblade had a totally unique feel to it.

Take the trigger springs out of the race frame and it's feels like heaven.

Feels that way to me!!

Dont blame me, I also like the 03 Shocker.

Tried both e frames, and honestly liked the eblade, felt more like an electro than the race. This was when they both came out, have not tried a newer race.

This is why you should try before you buy. Everyones different.
