Title: rer lx brace ht
Post by: pdk25 on January 28, 2016, 01:36:00 PM
Hi.  Just picked up an LX.  Did a quick search and couldn't find the recommended brace height for a 62" lx.  Just wondered what everyone was using.  Thanks, in advance.

I have a 62" LX (and a set of XR limbs as well). My LX works well for me at 7 1/4", but that's a little below the recommended brace height. Below is a copy from the old RER web site when Kevin was making them.
