Reg Bib vs Bib Starter

I debated a long time before ordering, I got the reg Bib. I know SWM prefers the Starter, any other opinions? My erect size is well within the recommended size according to Bib’s website, but my flacid size is intimidated by the reg Bib…. I’m trying different wraps & adjustments, I think it’s going to work ok but wondering if I’d have been better off with the starter.

wesb,

Well, you can only go so far with measurements to find the model that best works for you. Sometimes guys who are larger do prefer the Starter. It is simply one of those individual issues.

Be sure to stretch out while wrapping so that the skin is smooth while wrapping, and so you can wrap a long enough area to accomodate the hanger. The best advice is to experiment with it.

Bigger

I went with the starter. I’m about 7.25 BPEL, but my FL is not so good. I thought the regular Bib might be cramped up too close to my glans. I also thought I could get better tunica effect (both SO & OTS) with the starter, since it would be gripping less of my shaft than the Bib regular.

I would love the “problem” of having to buy a Bib regular some day, but for now I think the starter will work well.

Hooray!

(ps - thanks for the extra beads BIB - truly excellent customer service)

If you are finding the hanger a bit big to start with - try jelqing for a while before you put it on. Just enough to get a bit of a pump going, and it should attach easier.

I find it that way anyway….

I have both the Starter and the Regular Bib. I use them both. I actually prefer the Starter for fulcrum hanging. I probably use the Starter more. I have a 9.25 inch flaccid stretch, so I have plenty of length for both.

Toid how long have you been hanging?

I have been hanging an average of 3 hours a day for 16 months.

I own the regular

Admittedly at around 6.75 bpel when I started the regular was a bit of a stretch (grower not a shower like you). For a shower, I’m sure it would have been easier.
But now at almost 7.5 bpel or 7 ‘real’ nbp, the regular has got progressively easier and easier to use.

I think I would have done as well or maybe a little better with a starter to this point, but now I thik the reg bib will be better. Stick with it as you are gaining well… and I’m sure you’ll just find things easier and easier ….

Wow, that’s some serious discipline. What have your gains been over that 16 months, and are you still gaining with any consistency?

I have gained 3 inches in length and 1.5 inches in girth. My gains have been relatively steady.
