N3 Full Carbon Limbs and ET8 Riser by NIKA Archery - Review

[@bokkenwielderful]

I agree that nika should make a turkish bow with that limb design. If Armin manages to do it, I'll buy him a lot of coffee.

[@brookvalleylife724]

Hi Armin. I tested these on my channel and I also have the ET-11 riser. I shoot it in Olympic recurve style. I love these limbs and riser combo. I also have their C2 and C1 limbs. Not as fast but still stable, smooth and very quiet. I would like to get my hands on the new N3 pro limbs but they are more expensive.

[@retunedas3390]

I put some N3 limbs on a White Feather Lark and Junxing F261 riser and they shoot like -as you said- a scalpel! Smooth, silent, stable, deadly accurate! Worth their money in any case! 😍

[@gerrycostello7119]

Have the N3s No problems with the. Seriously smooth and fast 👌

[@laurentmeiller5171]

nice barebow, compared to a traditionnal recurve the feeling is not the same : the synthetic handle and the chhtonggg noise.... but for archers obsessed by ultra precision till 40-50 meters, it's the right choice !

[@jimmyhor78]

190 fps is insane for that light of a draw weight! Very impressive limbs.

[@JustInTime0525]

Could you check the actual draw weight of the limbs? I got mine in 38 pounds, but it only measures 34 pounds at 29" draw length, limb bolts middle setting on W&W ATF X. Told them about the issue but they refuse to acknowledge their QC mistakes and just say different riser will have different poundage, however a difference of 4 pounds is outside of normal range, overall a pretty negative experience with them so far...

[@davidjensen2411]

Mine is awesome for Barebow! Comparable shooting with a Compound... 👍

[@unowen7779]

I own ET8, it's solid. I tried loosen the tiller and locked it again to decrease draw weight. However, the lower bolt always loosened after like 20 shoots. Any solutions?

[@wuwwuas]

May I ask, is the ET-11 superior to the ET-8? Is it suitable to use the ET-8 riser for making a barebow?

[@colleenparsons51]

Hi Hermin, My string on my bow near my noches have come un raveled does this mean its time for a new string or can I mend it with some archary cotton in the middle of the noches

[@ArminHirmer]

You should consider getting a new string and check the grooves of the nocks if they are sharp

[@colleenparsons51]

@@ArminHirmer Thank you very much for your reply, I shall do. I did think of them being sharp, that's worth checking out, happy shooting love watching your video' on verus bows

[@blairejercito7550]

These limbs require a longer brace height to make it silent. In fact this is the quitest limbs i have ever tried . Set mine around 9.3 inches .

[@marylandflyer5670]

Why do barebow archers shoot so quickly? Seems like hardly enough time to touch the back wall?

[@ArminHirmer]

maybe because they can?

[@HamishGarland]

​@@ArminHirmerjust because they can, that doesn't mean they should.

[@ArminHirmer]

@@HamishGarland matter of choice I guess, thats the fascination of archery. everyone can shoot as he likes too and nothing is wrong with it

[@stevenparsons4464]

😊 +1 for a small Turkish bow with two strings. 😊

[@pyramid_scheme_termination3655]

They should make a horse bow riser for those limbs so you can switch your style with the same equipment.

[@kennethhollenbeck7107]

Not Asian, but nice bow if you like these type bows, to me might as well by A Compound with all the attachments to make it really accurate, but what fun is that ? Might as well purchase a gun. For me I enjoy the Challange of Asian style bows and Bamboo Arrows. All in All just my opinion. Great review Armin.

[@featherknife8611]

You should try some b3ent arrows, with the limbs mounted backwards. VERY challenging!!!!

[@Excalibure666]

UUKHA limbs copy!! I wonder how it perform.

@@alexisalliel73 Which UUKHA model do they compare do you know? It would be shame if they make better than what copied from. I have SX+ on my TFT-G Olympic setup and they are superb.

[@brookvalleylife724]

@Excalibure666 I have the HX10 EVO2 uukha limbs and they are comparable to the N3. 55%carbon. The N3 are just as good if not a bit more robust than the uukhas.

[@MrRourk]

Armin get them to make an ambidextrous riser.

[@HamishGarland]

They have one, the ET-2

[@ZephrusPrime]

Tiller is off, sounds like the tiller bolt locks in the back are loose. Also the rest isn't suppose to go on the clicker plate. Brace height is also too high there seems to be too much preload in the limbs. A Hoyt Super rest would work better and always use rubbing alcohol to clean where you place the rest before applying the rest. These kinds of bows need to be set up properly to get them to work right.

[@johncuthbertson2565]

You sound quite experienced in this type of bow 👍

[@johnweymouth5685]

​@johncuthbertson2565 no he doesn't, I've had one of these and he's making a mountain out of a mole hill, there's always got to be a self proclaimed pro that knows a little about everything and not must about anything. Sense I've been in traditional archery since 1974 I get a real kick out of the out of the armchair quarter back commentors, you should just sit back with a beverage and enjoy Armin's show.

:D not that I mentioned 2 times in the video, that I put the rest there even if it does not belong there. And guess what? I still could shoot tight groups :D

They look like carbon copies (pun intended) of my old uukhas hx10.

[@Excalibure666]

they are definitely copy of UUKHA

[@topointarchery8076]

everything without copy will far more expensive, which you may willing to pay@@Excalibure666

[@tri-seeker2753]

Looks pretty decent in terms of all hard-measurable performance, but... THE NOISE! Seriusly, just the sound of the shot is SO offputting...

[@mrnice752]

That will be the riser. Armin clearly doesn't know how to set up an ILF bow, it's likely all the screws were loose and that's what you hear rattling.

[@rossjones3006]

☀️ Promo sm

[@shredfreak83]

For the price this limb isn't worth getting over a gillo q2/3 or a fivics vellator. Needles to say i ordered uukha's a week after finishing the modifications on my limbs (recut the dovetails so they fit, fill with epoxy & spare carbon since one was way off centre, replace the entire spring assembly). I guess the only limbs that get actually checked for flaws are the ones being sent to youtubers, the rest is the usual hit & miss that makes chinese products "loved" by everyone 🙄
