I am rocking the SD / RCH and have been (along with GW). I have shoulder arthritis and bone spurs. That is limiting some mobility in right arm to reach to the side / behind me.
Last year I ordered (and returned) a Kestrel size 2 as i found it too difficult to reach to clip biner to LB loop.
I see the kite is supposed to have more distance to LB loops than Kestrel.
I am not in a rush, but if the kite 2 or mantis XL had sufficiently longer distance to LB loops, I would plan on upgrading my SD / RC.
Can anyone provide actual measurements from the ends of LB loops for the saddles mentioned in the title? Respectfully, I am not interested in anything other than hard data. Speculation or “you won’t regret it” do nothing to provide me with data for a purchase decision.
Much appreciated for input.
