ranger wicked

[tedgarner]

i just bought a ranger wicked. xxl . I tend to gain and lose weight more gain than lose but never mind that.
my question is how much would a set of xl shoulder cost.
i would also like a velcro holder strap for the other side of the shoulders dont really care if itsays wicked or not.
can you help me?

You'll be looking at approximately $80 for the shoulder section, but be aware that we have discontinued the Wicked line of products so you may have a little trouble finding someone with a shoulder section at the store.

The velcro hose holders are much more readily available, you can order them from your local Zeagle dealer using part number 8026Z-"model" where "model" would be the BC name. I believe just using 8026Z gets you the Zeagle logo, which would be a good option in this case.

would the standard ranger shoulders fit it?

 

[Jeff-F]

Absolutely, the standard Ranger and the Wicked Ranger are functionally identical. The differences are all in their appearance.

I am in the market for a new BC. I have been looking at the Zeagle Ranger. I really like it but the tank seems to ride really low. I also tech dive and I am used to big doubles riding high enough to reach the valves. The Ranger puts the tank so low it is almost uncomfortable. Is a low cylinder normal or have I set it up too low?

 

[Jeff-F]

We intended it to be set up that the top of the cylinder valve is even with the top of the bladder assembly. For some folks, particularly those wearing larger size Rangers, this can put it kind of low. But its a suggestion more than a hard rule, you can set it up however is most comfortable for you. Think of it as a starting point and then adjust the tank height from there. I'm sure some of the other guys around here would be more able than I am to tell you how it looks on you with twins and larger tanks, that was never my specialization.

No, the Ranger LTD shoulders have a different buckle type (pointed out by the red arrow below) that won't work with the Ranger/Wicked buckles. Check it out below.

you really dont see the grey of the shoulder straps but you could always do custom color shoulders but i think its a waist i have a grey ranger ltd and the grey of the shoulders is not all that visable
