My first post here. I am not new to archery, but I am very new to Olympic style. I feel as though I got ahead of myself and made a really poor choice by purchasing a FIVICS FX1 Riser 25" and Medium RX1 40# limbs. Turns out they are new old stock. If this not the proper place or a proper post please move or delete.
I contacted FIVICS through their web site asking for an Owners Manual and what their recommended brace height range is for the above set up. I never received either. I got an email from them with nothing other than a thanks for contacting us.
So I tried FIVICS on Facebook and got the following response:
Dear Customer, i know what you want to say. but, there is no recommended range for the brace any companies. if you have any manufacturers please send me. ^^ Also I would like to let you know that there is no standard fit of brace height, and it depends on the archers bow's tuning status.
That really got me going so I sent them a copy of the Win&Win and Hoyt Owners Manuals. Their claim that no manufacturer provides thus information is totally wrong. I am convinced I made a bad choice by purchasing FIVICS instead of a more mainstream manufacturer like Hoyt or Wun&Win. FIVICS customer service is a real disappointment. I'll just use the numbers from the Easton tuning guide. Maybe I better start looking for a way to unload FIVICS in favor of a more reliable manufacturer.
Any others with experience with FIVICS?
