They do work very well indeed although I had wondered why they were sooo long. Brant, did you have a hand in designing the Ridgeline?

Our standard version has a slot that is about 13mm shorter. Since this was a prototype I chose to put the longer ones as it gives you more to play around with. The stop bolt length is also shorter on the standard version slider. Saw the question on the bolts being so close together. If you make them farther apart you will lose the travel necessary to tension the belt. There is an optional aluminum slider pc for Rolhoff use as well Mark Lynskey has just mailed me:-
