Hi all

Military Artics and Pacific’s have a bracket system so also not glued. Plenty of them in the second hand market depending why your asking

Hi
thanks for the reply looking for a used rib and expecting a tube change at some point so wondering which would be easiest to replace in advance.

thanks mark

Zodiac refer to the system as slide on tubeset or bolt rope. The replacement tubes as you’d -expect are not cheap. Occasionally you’ll get left over stock or a cancelled order and there may be a tubeset going for a song, but it’s rare. On older Zodiacs, then double, no trip check compatibility, as there are variation with models.
