just upgraded my leather HW35 to synthetic...

Here you go, Jon.



Here's the three strokes and weights of the three setups :-

Factory Synthetic sealed piston --------------------------------------- 69mm stroke - piston weight 264g

Factory Leather sealed piston ----------------------------------------- 65mm stroke - piston weight 294g

Leather sealed piston adapted via steel adaptor to synthetic ------- 61mm stroke - piston weight 321g

Brilliant information, Mick.

I remembered you had posted this before and that the weight saving was significant but couldn't remember exactly. Be great to have this info in the thread in Useful Information.

And I really must get one sorted for my old nail......that extra 8mm of stroke and 57g weight saving should make a huge difference.
