Eleveight Leader Line Set Complete | Full Kite Bar Leader Line Replacement

Replace the full leader line and depower system in one kit. The Eleveight Leader Line Set Complete includes everything between the bar and the kite's front lines — TPU-coated Dyneema depower line, safety line, clamcleat with grab handle, bungee and rubber ball end stop — so you can overhaul the most wear-prone part of your Eleveight kite bar in a single go. Part of the full Eleveight spare parts range at Northern Watersports.

What Does the Leader Line Set Include?

This is the complete assembly that connects your bar's depower system to the kite's front lines. A worn leader line degrades under constant UV, saltwater and friction exposure — replacing the full set in one go gives you a fresh system without compatibility concerns from mixing old and new components.

Who It's For

Eleveight CS Vary Bar (V2/V3/V4), CS Vary Bar Plus (V4/V5) and CS Auto Bar V1 owners who need to replace worn leader lines, a damaged depower line, a seized clamcleat, or who are doing a full pre-season bar overhaul. Confirm your bar version for compatibility before ordering.

Key Features

• TPU-Coated Dyneema Depower Line — double-layer Spectra/Dyneema core with thermoplastic polyurethane coating to reduce friction and extend line life
• German-Made Dyneema Safety Line — thermo-coated, tightly braided for maximum break-load resistance and minimum stretch
• Clamcleat with Grab Handle — for easy depower adjustment on the water
• Rubber Ball End Stop — prevents the depower line running through the clamcleat
• Bungee Component — elastic bungee for controlled system return
• Break Load: >200kg — rated well above normal kite loads
• Low-Stretch Construction — 100% Spectra/Dyneema core, minimum elongation under load

Real-World Feel

A fresh leader line set transforms an ageing bar. Depower range becomes consistent again, the clamcleat bites cleanly, and you lose the anxiety of riding on lines that have been UV-degrading through multiple seasons. The TPU coating on the depower line is a genuine friction-reducer: smoother, quieter, slower to wear than uncoated alternatives. If your current lines show any fraying, discolouration or stiffness — don't wait.

Setup / Fit

Refer to the Eleveight bar assembly guide or the official Eleveight YouTube channel for installation instructions specific to your bar version. The ball end stop and bungee positions are important to get right — incorrect assembly can affect depower range or safety system function. Allow 30–45 minutes for the full replacement.

Why We Stock It

Bar maintenance is underrated in kitesurfing. Most riders replace kites long before bars, but lines degrade invisibly — UV, saltwater and abrasion accumulate without visible fraying until the line lets go at the worst possible moment. Stocking genuine Eleveight leader line sets means our customers can do the job properly with the right parts, not substitutes.

FAQs

What is included in the Eleveight Leader Line Set Complete?

The full set includes the TPU-coated Dyneema depower line, Dyneema safety line, clamcleat with grab handle, rubber ball end stop and bungee component — the complete leader line assembly between bar and front lines.

How often should I replace kite bar leader lines?

Inspect after every season, or sooner if lines show fraying, discolouration or coating stiffness. Riding 50+ sessions per year, consider replacing every 2–3 seasons regardless. Lines that look fine can still be UV-degraded below their rated break load.

What Eleveight bars is this leader line set compatible with?

Compatible with CS Vary Bar V2/V3/V4 and CS Vary Bar Plus V4/V5 and CS Auto Bar V1. Confirm your bar version against the Eleveight spare parts catalogue — leader line sets are model-specific.

Can I replace just the depower line rather than the complete set?

Individual components are sometimes available separately. However, if your bar has several seasons of use, replacing the complete set is recommended — mixing old and new components in a safety-critical system creates potential weak points. The complete set gives consistent break loads throughout.

How do I know if my leader lines need replacing?

Look for fraying, stiffness, bleached colour from UV, or visible coating damage. Also check if the clamcleat is slipping — often that's wear on the cleat body rather than the line itself. Replace at the first sign of deterioration.
