Pencil_Pusher Posted October 24, 2001 Share Posted October 24, 2001 They've got some errors in their catalog for tech descriptions of climbing gear. While their catalog rocks for providing way more than others, the data is not entirely accurate. Take a look at the KN ratings for their perlon. Even the KN rating for the Titan cord (1700+KN) seems a bit high. The #7 tri-cam I bought is rated to 16kn (as shown on it's label), not 20 as shown in the catalog. The Wild Country hexcentrics are way off in both their range and weight specs in the catalog. Go out and grab a #9 and tell me that puppy can cover up to 149mm and only weighs 61 grams. WC sent me a reply saying they caught those errors, yet they still appear on their website. Mtn Gear was notified as well and nothing's been done in their catalog as well. Yeah, I guess I was bored. Window shopping 'cause I can't afford all that stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Posted October 24, 2001 Share Posted October 24, 2001 uh, yeah......it's either going to catch your ass or it isn't. anyway, I just wanted to say- I ordered something from them on-line last monday, and it was sitting on my porch that wednesday- impressive.
