SVBONY SV211 135mm Telescope Handle Bar for SV550 80 APO and SV503 80ED

Product Overview

The SVBONY SV211 is a 135 mm carry handle that mounts across the tube rings of SVBONY's SV550 80 APO and SV503 80ED refractors. Along with giving you a firm grip when lifting the telescope onto the mount, it has an integrated saddle on top for a guide scope or finder scope; SVBONY shows it with the SV198 50 mm guide scope. It is machined from 6061 aluminium in red, measures 135 × 42 × 39 mm and weighs 136 g.
