Gen 2 vs new Kifaru duplex

[TxTrapper]

For those who have had both.
Typically on the duplex belt it is recommended to really crank down on the belt when loaded heavy.
Does it seem the same for the belt on the newer frame?
Do you have to tighten it down as much as the earlier belts?

I would say that I tighten them about the same.

I would say that I tighten them about the same.

How do they feel compared to each other when tightened ?

I crank down on the belt, not sure the belts overall are really any different in their function.

It's hard to give a fair comparison, because I've packed a lot more with my older frame and it's been broken in more than my newer frame. With only packing out a couple animals with my new frame I think it's more comfortable, but I really need to put a lot more miles on it before I can give a conclusion.

With that said, I'm absolutely happy with the new frame so far. I haven't found anything that I don't like about it.
