Halo + iR3=problem?

[John C]

AGD ones can be purchased from AGD in the USA!!!

We have some on order at the moment...



Old ones can be found on old angels.
They look the same but if you take them out and compare the stiffness you will notice the new ones are really weak in comparison to the old ones.

so im looking at either the AGD ones, or LED/LCD? ones

ive got some new detents on my angel lcd and have no clue what they are, maybe you do...

its silver sticks out about 1cm and has a sharp point at the end with 6 groves along the side

never seen these before and wondered what they are

bullet ones, theyre on the WDP site

 

[John C]

Some of the bullet ones are really good.

Unfortunately because it is the spring on the inside that matters, some of the bullet ones are just as bad as the new ones.

You can only really assess the strength by practice, I can tell how good a ball detent is going to be just by squeezing it, but that is because I have squeezed hundreds of them!!!

Sorry I cant be more helpful.



We are expecting a load of the AGD ones soon, hopefully by christmas. But then again we have been waiting since september!



EDIT TO ADD
In general yes LED and early LCD ones are good, but you have to remember they may have been recently replaced in which case it wont be suitable for a halo.

so i could be lucky/ unlucky with them eeeh well they look cool

 

[John C]

Yeah, they are the ones that you can tighten by hand.

If you have several detents you can compare then with each other.

Always use the stiffest ones, even if you dont use a halo...

Didn't Cobra do one that could be taken apart to clean or a stronger spring put in.......

Don't know about Cobra, but System X do a rebuildable three piece detent that works awesome once you stretch the springs, you might check one out (if they're still making them).

you are right about the cobra ones they have adjustable spring pressure and the custom products ones are good as well.
