Due to the ASS reinforcement system the
Kantega XC leading edge is very robust.
Should a reinforcement batten break they
are however very easy to replace. Both
ends of the pockets have openings to
allow easy replacement, see the following
illustration series to learn how to do it
yourself:
Once you have removed the broken
batten the new one must be inserted into
the pocket. It makes no difference if you
do this from below or from above, but in
this example the new one is slotted in from
behind:
Before pushing the batten all the way
in we recommend covering the end
with a bit of tape. This protects the
fabric from abrasion damage in case
the batten has sharp corners/edges.
