I have tried the new click frame and one thing that is wierd about the frame is that when i clamp it down, it is pictched way up on the front end the of screen than than the rear. Is it normal for this type of system like shurloc or click frame to have a pitch when clamped down. I noticed the bottom of the frame looks different than the top of the frames which obviously is the design of the frame. I have not tried the shurloc frame. I don't know if it is my press or the frame that is making pitched up when i clamp it down. When i clamp it down with the wood frame it is not that pitched up. My new wood frame measure. 1.35 inch and the click frame measure 1.5 inches. Does the frame width size have different angle when it is clamped down?

The simple answer to this is, the wood frame doesn't pitch up because the bottom of the frame is flat/smooth, and the click frame isn't.
I have some of the EZ frames, but i'm on an automatic with side clamps. The frame is pretty flag though and I don't imagine it causing issues.
With the click frame, it sounds like that could cause issues if you're printing a registration-sensitive image, as that additional pitch (even when adjusted with the tilt of the printhead, assuming you have that adjustment), could cause the frame to wiggle, and be an overall headache.

i did not installed the mesh all the way and the tracker did not sit where it should have seated. I just watched the video on how to install it and i did not follow the instructions correctly. i have to install it again and check later today to see if it does not create the pitch when first locked down. Like you said your ez frame is preatty flat and I think the click frame should be flat as well because it is new. I just did not pull the tracker all the down to the groove. This is very affordable frames and i thought there was something wrong with it. I hope it does not pitch up when i check again later. thank you.
Shurloc sits flat, BUT if you use their protector strips, it can raise your off contact a bit. Kind of a hassle if you have statics in your rotation still. Unless you like adjusting your off contact all the time. I ditched the strips and just tape the screen bottoms now.
