What are some airbags that fit an Octane 91

Post by canoeman61 »

I know, Fallline is best, but I am not sure I can shell out at least $300 for bags. Are there other bags that will fit in the big blunt ends? It is a new gen Octane so not quite as wide as the old.

For the record I believe that a set of Fall Line single layer bags to fit an Octane 91 are $250 which is very competitive with offerings from Harmony and NRS and much better quality.

I believe Richard at Mohawk is offering some new bags that fit as well.

We have brought air bag manufacturing in house to be able to offer high quality bags a t good price. Right now I have bags for the Option, Ledge, Octane 91 and 92 for $120 a set available in Red, Yellow, and orange. We also have 48 and 60 inch bags in the same colors.

Thank you for your responses. Yes, you are correct, a set of single layer Fall Line bags is $250, which is competitive with and a much better deal than Harmony bags, which I have found do not last. That being said, I have had very good luck with Mohawk bags in the past so I will be contacting you, Richard.

Just an aside for posterity, HazardHarry used 72"x48" Bigfoot Bags, I just used 48"x48" Bigfoot bags and they fill things in nicely in an Octane 91. Fall Line bags are a better fit but the 48"x48" bigfoot bags are at least as good as any normal airbag and I paid $26 for 7 of them on ebay. Saving my pennies for a set of Fall Lines but these are at least serviceable in the meantime.

I recommend the Mohawk bags. They fit well, are light, cost less than half the expensive ones, and Richard provides excellent customer service.
