Lancehead Crossbows – RELIABILITY IS EVERYTHING IN COMPACT PERFORMANCE
As today’s crossbows push the limits it’s usually at the expense of reliability. Lancehead is committed to fulfilling its hunting-grade promise of reliability delivering the balance of compact accuracy and speed.
// Compact
At 3.9” wide, drawn or undrawn, the Lancehead F1 generates remarkable power using little space. Torsion Drive™ micro limbs store more power in less space than any conventional crossbow – making the F1 the most compact crossbow on the market.
// Accurate
Our Torsion Drive™ system delivers smooth power with relative low poundage and a longer power stroke than any conventional crossbow. Most rely on high poundage and short power strokes to drive speed, creating vibration and reducing accuracy.
// Reliable
Torsion Drive™ micro limbs are made of coated carbon steel, making them tougher and more durable than any conventional crossbow limbs. Paired with the cam and pulley system, the entire system is designed to maintain balance and timing for accuracy that lasts. Our U-Tune™ integrated maintenance system allows you to replace strings and cables, as well as fine tune almost anywhere.
Torsion Drive™
Compact performance finally meets reliability in our patented Torsion Drive™. The ultra tough, yet light weight carbon steel micro limbs safely store immense power in a tight space. Cams direct this power into the drive system, compounding it into smooth acceleration over an industry leading 24″ power stroke, that delivers flat, punch-through accuracy time.
U-Tune™ Flexibility
Tired of visiting the bow shop to service your crossbow? U-Tune™ has you covered. This integrated system utilizes the cocking winch and a few pocket sized tools – giving you the ability to change strings and cables, as well as fine tune your F1 torsion crossbow almost anywhere, with factory precision, and no long trips to the shop.
CamoSwap™
Finally one crossbow for every place and season. CamoSwap™ components such as side covers and stock are interchangeable with a few bolts without interfering with the crossbow tuning. Offering a wide variety of camo patterns, CamoSwap™ has you covered for any terrain or season– fully stealth.
Safety Features
Unlike the majority of modern day crossbows which rely on brittle and heat-sensitive laminations of composite limb material, Lancehead uses ultra tough, ductile steel. It is sealed in a military-grade corrosion protectant, enabling an extremely high heat tolerance. Lancehead micro torsion limbs never spring outward and are covered by an impact modified polymer housing to minimize unwanted interference with their compact movement. With approximately a 2” axle-to-axle width, Lancehead minimizes string exposure and includes an anti-dry fire system along with components.
