Are both the ratchmatic and the ratchet carbo lowers a pain? What makes them harder to adjust? Isn't it a case of set it and forget it?
The jaw angle adjustment on the original ratchets is far simpler. They have not found a way to do this on the carbo version. Maybe not as big a deal if you set it and forget it, but I like to change the angle for some conditions. If it is really blowing, I may want to get the blocks to release easier, so place the jaws higher. It is personal preference. I see no advantage to the carbo lower. That is why we use the standard triple lower and carbo upper in combination.
