I'm 6'10" though, so when I stand up even with the top set up high, I still have plenty of room with the front bar. Climbing is SIMPLE and painless because of the bar, as well as safety while in stand is greatly increased by having that padded bar. You absolutely won't be disappointed in the Titan if you get one. Also, the Summit side/front bags are awesome. With my climber, I don't carry a pack, everything I need is in the bags.
i could not see paying 36 dollars for new summit bags. i heard zippers break also.so i looked at other ideas.i found REMINGTON WAIST BAGS at wal-mart for under 5 dollars ea. they come in hd realtree.
i put 1 on each side.
it does not hold as much as summit bags but holds everything i want other than my lunch/thermos bottle .
i cut the belt off and secured it to summit with 3 plastic ties.
its GREAT. i have my climbing rope/harness/limb saw/bow pull up rope/hooks in these.i stick my small fanny pack inside my 180 max or titan to carry.
we modified alot of things on 180 ma/titan.
if anyone would like tips, drop me PM.
