Bib vs Bib starter

It seems like the bib starter would be more beneficial, no matter what your size is. You are exposing more surface area with the starter. Still stretches the ligs, more penis exposed equals more hyperplasia, and (from the pic I saw) more of the tunica is exposed for stretching. Just brainstorming (more like a light drizzle). Please correct me or slap me around if im wrong.

Maybe so but the regular Bib hanger will hold more weight when you move up. From what I have read, you are better to go with the regular Bib instead of the starter if you can because it will save you money down the road.

FM,
Bib has a thread somewhere that explains the different sizes.

I bought the Bib starter and really like it. From what I recall about the thread the main difference is that the starter is limited to someone who is below 6 1/2 inches in erect girth. (you can double check that in his thread, do a search). Other than that I believe the starter is more versatile. You can hang the same weight from it and it will fit lengths from small to …….

The original Bib Hanger works best for guys with at least 6 inches erect length* and 5 inches erect girth*.

The new Bib Starter works for guys with at least 3.5 inches erect length* and 3.5 inches erect girth*.

The Bib Starter is about one inch shorter in length and slightly shorter in height than the original Bib Hanger. As a result, the Bib Starter is less likely to stretch the skin excessively. If you have tight skin when erect, the Bib Starter may be for you.

On the other hand, because it is in contact with more of the shaft, the original Bib Hanger usually handles heavier weight more comfortably.

The Bib Starter can accommodate a maximum erect girth* of approximately 6.5 inches. There are no limits on erect length.

The original Bib Hanger can accommodate a maximum erect girth* of approximately 8 inches. There are no limits on erect length.

I am currently hanging 7.5 pounds with the bib starter. What is a max weight for it anyway?

I don’t think there is a number. Original bib has more surface area and therefore creates more traction, so you don’t have to get it as tight as bib starter when hanging heavy weights. If you start hanging big weights with a starter, you will need to tighten the screw real well, cutting off the circulation and potentially damaging the tissues.

I never tried the starter but I think I would prefer one because I don’t think the regular bib stretches the tunica enough. I like the wench for the tunica stretching that it does it also hits the ligs but the full size bib hits mostly all ligs.

I just started with the full-size bib hanger. My un-enhanced BPEL is 6.0in, with girth of 5.5in, and I find that the standard hanger covers a huge amount of real estate, making it difficult for the skin to bunch up and keep the hanger off my corona (not the beer, so don’t go there). Also, I have to crank the top screw way down to hold my flaccid girth.

I would like to swap the big bib for a starter, but have not found any takers. In a few days, I will put the full-size up for sale on Ebay. So, as far as I’m concerned, you want the starter unless you already have some serious meat to work with.

By the way, I agree with the others here that a factory-made bib is way better than what I could personally cook up on a DIY basis.

I’ve been happy with my starter. Especially once I heard about the less is more theory and cut my weight from 17.5 to 6lbs. at just over 6 BPEL I think the regular bib would be to big for me.

Wow stubby, that is a big cut in weight. Are you seeing any fatigue with only 6lbs?

a little- I had laid off hanging fora while because I couldn’t seem to do it right so when I started back up I posted and was informed that the likes of Bib started out with low weight and then, only after exhausting gains from that weight and all angles did he start slowly moving up. I feel very very light fatigue. I’m also doing ADS with PE weights.

I prefer the light fatigue feel- I’d rather slowly coax my penis to get bigger than try and yank it out and have it fight back or get hurt.

I didn’t feel fatigue till I got to 10 lbs. Hanging BTC. I can do 3-20 min. Sets and don’t have to drop down as of yet. The angle you hang has a lot to do with it too.

I totally agree, I don’t think I have the technique down to do BTC, my goal is to make a little contraption so I can do SO instead of SD but think I’ll also need to change my computer setup for that as if I hang SO I I won’t be able to reach my keyboard. And the reason I’m posting so much as of late (other than the fact that I totally kick ass) is that I read thunders while hanging.

As far as the fatigue I honestly don’t feel it till I am done with the hanging session, and even then it is VERY mild.
