The upgrade has arrived, and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't at least a little bit scared of this behemoth (feddit.uk)

Tightening the locking nut was extremely difficult using a stainless steel spanner, I really should have seen that coming and found a non-magnetic one 😅

The Barbarian makes the little Hardcore look like a kids toy. I just hope I don't get it stuck to a harbour wall or steel bridge when I get to take it for a spin!

Scared of a magnet?

It's going to really hurt if I get part of me between this and a big bit of metal, it weighs 2.2kg and has a pull force rating of 1600kg. Although I'm probably more worried about getting it stuck to a bridge or harbour wall and my winch or rope breaking before it comes off.
