Has anyone made this change from chic loop to talon to their slingy bar before? Is it difficult? Does the talon make a huge difference in overall comfort? Im thinking about making the conversion but wanted to see if any on here has done it themselves before and any tip they might have? any info would be greatly appreciated!

Changing your chicken loop out for the talon takes about 10 seconds . Back out the hex bolt remove the metal chicken loop attachement , slide the talon ring in its place and reinstall the bolt . I love the talon / rope combination feels like a solid connection . Go For It

I just put the talon on my bars very easy
I have a question I seen a metal ring add to
the rope for smoother travel and less wear
Has anyone else done this?
