Does anyone have direct experience using the James Baroud Odyssey?

.. Especially if you previously had a different JB RTT like Evo, etc. I'm trying to understand if it's easier to set up and take down compared to EVO (but in the words of an actual owner). I have the Evo on my older jeep, but on my new jeep I want to add either Ursa Minor J30 or JB Odyssey.

From the Odyssey specs, it seems like its a big improvement to not need the latches on the front, and I'm trying to see if it's lighter than the Evo (which makes for a top heavy jeep).

Thanks in Advance,

Jason

The Odyssey is easier to close than than their Evolution models, mainly due to the fabric “plyability’ and how the two halves join, along with the front lip vs latch system.

It is slightly heavier than the previous model. I can get an official weight in a couple days, as I sell these at the shop I work at.
