New Horse Collar BC

[Mike Matthews]

I need to purchase a new/replacement BC. I like the Horse Collar style for a variety of reasons. Does anyone know of gear makers who still produce this style. You could save me a lot of research.

Ya got my curiosity up. What's the advantages of the horse collar?

PM me if you don't want to start a war on the thread, or otherwise want to keep your reasons private.

Thanks.

AP Valves in the UK still make the ABLJ (horse collar) They make stuff that lasts forever, very good workmanship, great at the after sales too,
