Reviews
I purchased this for my Soloflex. It works great. I probably should have ordered a little bit bigger or smaller. Probably smaller. Now I have to adjust the free floating bar to take up for the slack. With the purchase of another load pin, I am able to use these in conjunction with the Soloflex shock rings I have from the Soloflex company. Its too bad they ceased operations in 2023. I believe I have the 9 inch rings from Aircraft Spruce. I probably would have been better off going with the 8 or 10 inch rings. 8 probably would have been better.

Jarrod, I havent purchased this yet. Im thinking about it. Depending on whether I measure the pegs on the Soloflex, the inside diameter of the shock rings or the outside diameter, I get anywhere from about 4 3/4 inches to as much as 6 inches. How does a 9 inch diameter cord work well when its that far out of spec?
Supposedly fresh stock, the 3 you sent me were a year old. No telling what the 4th would be.
