The Reflex used to be made by Fliteline Systems. I owned one and really liked it. It was comfortable, and FF friendly. Fliteline went out of business and Bomber manufacturing took over the Reflex line. they came out with a Reflex ll and I believe they are in the process of coming out with a new container based on the old reflex called the Viper. Bomber can make any repairs to the old reflex and they carry parts for the same. You can get more information at this address: http://bombermfg.com
Hope that helps, I thought the relfex was fine harness/container.

You were doing so well till you hit this one :Fairly rigger friendly too for a poptop, single pin is nice for them.

It takes a lot of rigger skill to make an exposed poptop look good. I've tried once and need a lot more practice to do it. The most rigger friendly stuff in my opinion is the ones that have everything inside. Granted its easier to pack then a Racer, but its deffinatly an art for exposed poptops.

I have one and I'm very happy with it. It fits great, is freefly safe, and has excellent reserve pin protection.

My only real problem with it is that it causes lazy riggers to bitch and I'm tired of listening to it. ;)

I have a 1997 Reflex. I love it. I learned to pack reserves on it and others. I don't think it's that tough to make look good. It fits well and I've never had my flaps come open during any freeflying. I did replace my risers with Relative Workshop risers because I like the features on them. Not that I couldn't get my Fliteline risers modified to be like them. Just was easier to buy RW risers and put them on.
