Wanted used but usable crossover control bar. Flying lines not needed

I have a couple new ones in stock if you can't find a used one or your local shop is out of stock. PKF discount will apply :thumbup:

And if your inner mad scientist is straining his shackles and baying at the moon (arrroooooo!!!!!), you're other option can be found here.

Wolf, there's a bit of a difference between the Ozone Turbo bar / PKD Twister bar and the HQ Crossover bar. Personal opinion is that the Ozone/PKD work much better. I was completely unimpressed the time I used the HQ bar.

Not sure how impressive it was, but the Gen I Crossover bar always struck me as very "cluttered" on the Scout I. It's cleaned up on the Scout II, but with the pulleys are the kite end, not sure how easy it migrates and the likelihood of a used one is slim.

Since the OP was looking for a used one (cost factor?), the link the to home brew Turbo bar seemed appropriate.

Looking to put this on my Rage 4.7 with chicken loop for my daughter. I don't have enough spare parts to cannabilize to build my own.

Hey DAKITEZ, U2U me that PKF discount.

Thanks Wolf, you have inspired me. I Do have a bar that I might work with. Unfortunately is doesn't have a hole in the middle. I could drill a hole but I would like to find some of those inserts similar to the ones on the turbo bar. Any thoughts on where I might find these to get this project started?

How about a velcro strap with a D-ring?
