Bar Repair


While it doesn't effect the flying performance much (if at all) the winder extension on my Bularoo Best bar broke. I'll get a picture online soon hopefully, but I don't know what I should do to repair it. I mean, my guess is super glue or gorilla glue and some pressure for the time being, but I'm worried that unfortunately I might have to get another. Input on repairs would be greatly appreciated. :puzzled:

Thanks guys!

Pics would defintely help.

If you are referring to the "horn" (bar end), just replace it.

It is on the next to last row here:

I had no idea they were available online. That seems like it would do the trick! I've gone through the website before, but I guess I just got too distracted by the merchandise farther above it! I think mine is the model from a year earlier however, so I hope that I'll be able to find it online somewhere.....

If the bar is from a previous year, it would be best to contact Customer Support directly at 1.866.700.2378(BEST) between 9am - 5pm (EST), Monday - Friday.

It is quite possible they will have an exact match but just not list it on the website due to demand.

They don't stock merchandise that is as old as this. 'Tis a shame. I'll need to find a bar to cannibalize, but it'll be a fun little project.

What bar got damaged? Just to help you along, the 55cm bar is an 07 and the 45cm bar is an 08. Try checking with a couple of schools that use or sell best kites and they may have old parts or bars from their training stock.

Good luck.
