Help with Custom Ride Heights and Cant Angles


Click on the image to enlarge it.		 

The red lines indicate the top of the belt for each ride height. The black block indicates the belt for a mid ride height (most common). As you can see, the straight draw and forward cant angles work well with each ride height. Where we run into trouble, is the greater reverse cant angles. The 22.5° and 30° reverse cant angles should not be paired with a low ride, ever- unless you want your grip buried in your waistline, and should only be paired with a mid ride if you are fully aware of where your grip will sit. Half of the grip could be potentially in your waistline with a mid ride and greater reverse cant angle, so choose with caution and train with the holster often.

We chose a Glock 19 for the illustration due to it's popularity. Some firearms have different grip structure and/or different grip angles, so actual product's ride height and cant angles may slightly vary.

How to Carry a Gun while Mountain Biking

Dara Mounted Holster on a Bicycle!   A comfortable, safe and secure way to carry your firearm while riding a bike! The patented Mounted Holster system with RAM tough-claw can be mounted ANYWHERE! This week, we mounted our Walther PPS M@ to a Diamondback Bicycle, who knows where we'll mount it next week! Take a look: The video above show how the tough-claw mounted holster is mounted to the bicycle. With the no-slip rubber lining the inside of the claw, this thing is going nowhere! Here we are showing the stability of the Mounted holster while drawing our gun. As you can probably here, there is a nice audible click to let you know when the firearm is fully seated. The same Military grade rubber retention system, used on all Dara Holsters, is utilized under the trigger guard area. Allowing you to adjust the retention to your desired holding. Pretty cool, huh?
