Great product. Like the availability of options and the ease of changing out. Now make a .012 and a .010. Would love a faster option than already what's available.
Very well made, high quality release. I love the shape and in particular the balance point of the handle. In fact, it's the only release handle that, I tried so far, which really feels comfortable in my hands.
Only drawback for me is that I need a slightly slower click. Even the 0.020" is a little to fast for me. I would really love to see if you come out with a 0.022" or 0.024".
I have swapped several releases from click to no-click before and this was the easiest one EVER. Took under a minuite
Seriously easy and simple change-out! Matter of fact: I keep going back and forth between the two sizes I ordered to decide which one I’ll actually use!
Folks, this I s a 60 second process to change out any of these hooks! You remove a 6-32 set screw from the side of the hinge mechanism that holds the pin in that the hook is pivoting on, then, lay the release down on that side you just removed the set screw from on a solid and non-marring surface, and using a small finish nail (such as a paneling nail) on the opposite side of the set screw, finish tapping out the pin! We’re talking about a 5/64” hole - holding a pin that’s less than a #2 wooden pencils lead size! - 7/16” long! I mean: I’m able to just push mine out with the 1/16” Allen wrench that I take the set screw out with!
The hole that receives the pin opposite the end of the set screw side, is slightly swaged to keep the pin from coming out and losing the pin easily. The set screw forces the small pin into that swaged end to keep it securely in place (So that: Even if the set screw were to be left loose and vibrate out [user error] hopefully you would notice this before the screw or pin was able to loosen up enough to fall out).
Believe me when I say, This is so simple! Much easier than changing out moons! If you can turn an Allen wrench lefty Lucy and righty tighty you got this!!!
I’m just trying to decide if I would prefer THE HINGE in a large for my big hands!
So easy to swap hooks. Extremely easy. Not sure what someone was doing to their release to have the pin get stuck like in reviews on here, but my pin slid right out with ease. The only thing I can think of, is that they had some serious dirt and debris stuck in the pin area. They should have used a penetrating oil or something similar and it would come right out. I used nothing, and when I removed the Allen screw, the pin popped out and the new hook was installed in seconds. Love my Ultraview Hinge release.
