Pimping the Unger 0° Swivel Lock Handle



Mark Strange from Toronto, Canada & of "Beautiful View"has come up with the solution for interchanging your Unger 0° channel to make it a quick release. Mark adds,"many folks who have tried the Unger 0° swivel handle love the versatility of it but the most common complaint comes from having to loosen the two nuts and bolts to change out the channels/rubber." "If you have an Ettore Super System handle lying around, you can remove the quick-release mechanism from it and use it on the Unger." "The screw holes are the same distance apart. You will still be using the Unger plate as this will keep it a clipless system." "Remember to use the springs in between the nuts and the holding plate." He adds, "I had to drill out the screw holes a bit on the Unger because the Ettore screws were too tight; you need play."
Above you can see the Unger swivel-lock 0° handle & below with the modified handle interchanged with the Ettore Super System locking system.
See here on how to utilise the system for fanning with a pole. And see here on modifying your Ettore Contour-Pro handle.
