 Posted: Jul 27, 2007 3:39 am Post subject: Carbon Proline Handle exploded |
 |
|
I was completely happy with my purchase the other day....yesterday took out my brand new Proline Delta handle, at the first start the complete front of the handle exploded! 140 euros down the drain.....I hope they will replace my handle.....my dealer is makeing phone calls today.
Other people having bad experience with carbon handles??

I have had two carbon handles. My HYPERLITE REGIMENT handle started losing the camo grip in sections after only three sets. I returned it to my local shop and they switched it for an ACCURATE LINES PROOF handle. The PROOF handle is starting to do the same thing. The carbon has held up well on both models, but the manufacturers need to re-engineer the grips.

If you're talking about the 17" model then I had one too.
It got ran over the other day and went to the bottom of the lake(since they don't float) along with my coated rope:( |

urinal mint, they don't float!!!  I can't believe that. That's a waste of money in my opinion. I'll just go get a cheap Striaght Line. They're cheap and last a long time. |
