So basically you help people use different limbs with your risers, or different risers with your limbs. I can't think of another archery company that would help their customers in that way. Good on you.
i´ve mention some time back (don´t ask me -2 years maybe), that for example SF/WNS changed their springed tips in the ILF. The´re longer and more sharp now and maybe also the springs are stiffer. I don´t know why they did that, but maybe the reason is the problem with "clicking" them in. Now it´s harder to assemble and disassemble them in other brand´s risers and a pain in the ass to assemble in the Tempest riser (i don´t criticize Border). You can´t just push them in. You have to push the point with your finger/nail first.
@lukostrelbaklecany5443 win/win are slightly deeper in the riser. So yes, there is a little irritating compatability our limbs fall our win/win risers. We have longer (we call them nipples) to help catch this. If limbs are thinner, the screw compresses the spring more... thats also a difference between limb weights. Low poundage limbs are thinner. If you can get spare "nipples" for your limbs, file 0.5mm off then.
Very funny you should mention about losing alignment mid competition. A friend and I both had this happen with our CXT risers and we both soon after got rid of them for that problem
Great information. Lots to consider. I have French limbs ordered for the Tempest I will check all of these tolerances and the fit of each component when I receive everything. Thanks for posting.
@@markmclaughlin4801 we have a LOT of other brand limbs on our risers and a lot of our limbs on other brand risers. As I say. 75% of combinations work. Its when your ar the extreme ends of the tollerances does it become unacceptable
@@BorderArcheryLTD Thanks Sid. I will set up the bow with limb bolts in fully and see how the bow feels. This will be my first ILF bow set up The Covert Hunter bow does away with these issues though..... I will have to save my pennies

We have offerent this for years. To.our customers that is

We understand. We have heard it a few times. We have known this problem for 15-20 years. Imagine being told to buy threadlock

Sid, what’s your opinion of keeping an ILF bow strung between shooting to save wear on the limb connection?
Saving wear isn't really anything significant.
