A two line won't get much use once you've flown the four line power kites. Well, mine don't anyway. Save your money. Stick with the Imp 4 line or similar.

+1 on this! Save your money, save a LOT of it. :lol:

If you really want to start with 2 lines I recommend something that can be converted to 4 like the cheap Prism Stylus that I reviewed yesterday.
To your other question about line strength: this kite came with 150# test line and a high end wind of 20 mph. Fly it in about 25 -30 and you can enjoy the thrill of snapping a line [or two :wee:]. I think that Angus still has quad line sets on clearance for c. $65
