pdoire Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 I have recently gotten a new Elite which I have played with a little. I got it from Handegripperman who claims it is harder than the MM2 ( it is flush mounted and about 2 5/8 maybe a smidgen more). My 2004 #3 has a 2 3/4 spread and was rated about a 3.1 in the days before I could close it. The RB260 is flush mounted and has a 2.8 spread and is GORGEOUS even thought it's aluminum. I believe it is about a 3.2 or a hard #3. So in order they are: 2004 #3 3.1 RB260 3.2 Elite 3.3-3.4 This would agree with most of the wire size calcualtion also I believe. The RB260 is a beautiful gripper, I think everyone should have one..even just for show. I anxiously await the arrival of my RB300N and 330N Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bencrush Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Great post Paul. I have an RB260 that is harder than all but a few #3s that I've tried. Great gripper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great little gripper. Even the plain aluminum grippers are beautious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Yep. I would agree with that. - Although i dont know about the elite as I havent tried one. I have 2 threes. A 2004 and 2005 version and the rb is a little tougher than both of those. Going to get an elite next though cos I havent tried one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Moose Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Where do you buy RB's? I want one of these 260's!! ← I ordered my set from Arne. He sells RB grippers but maybe the shipping from Sweden might be a bit high? Bloody nice guy though, we have PMd back and forth regarding my set ( 11 of them) of grippers. Good service and very fast replies. Claes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
