I used it. found it good. But not sooooo much better I felt the need to upgrade.
Its a lot bulkier.
For push away is neither here nor there.

I've done the upgrade. The main reason is when in suicide I want the kite to flag out if I hit the quick release. Not for the push away, that's as Plummett said neither here nor there.
Easy installation but make sure you get the right safety bungy for the kite bar you have, they come separately to the actual chicken loop assembly.

Um all 2014 bars come with the new megatron system, where ya been mate. Still hard bar ends but I'm not at all fussed. Nice simple, clean bar, was and always will be. Plus love the ozone lines...The high Y on my norths and all the plastic drives me fn crazy!! But hey it's only a bar who gives a toss in the end.

Finally! Silly me...I stupidly kept going to their website to see if they had updated their bar. I should have just come here.
