Black and orange yes. Around 5 halves have bent about halfway. so, basically, the pole has bent either when flexing to install, or flexing to remove, or under load.
The poles bent rather than flexed across the entire length of the two halves together.
I can only assume it’s my fat 78kg ass, user error, or poor quality.
They have two holes and can be doubled up to increase tension and reduce bending, but these HK sellers don’t actually list poles as an additional purchase option.
@Belagerent thanks will check previous page.
