All that wasted time wrestling with leaf ping by carefully keeping the leaf and stem legs bone dry. I probably should have noticed that good factory lube jobs put a healthy coat of oil right on the leaf and legs but I didn’t. If you have 105 for springs, put a swipe on the tactile leaf. The tactility remains despite all that wisdom about carefully avoiding the heckin’ leaf and legs!!!1 The leaf ping does not remain. My tactiles don’t magically become linear and my heavy tactiles don’t magically feel like browns. Do the rails with 3203 as normal. If you only have 3203, a very light bit on the leaf is still fine Or just do the whole switch with 105 and lube the whole thing. I feel like a child who has been told that swallowing seeds will make trees grow in your belly, I just believed it. I thought I had to just cope with leaf ping to preserve tactility. It’s not true don’t fall for it. Use a light hand and you can have the best of both worlds

Lube the leaf on your tactiles with 105. If you use 205 on tactiles like a caveman you’re still beyond saving. That’s my rant, ymmv

      I think the only switch that i truly feel is not worth it to open up at all is aflion melody. i got a sample pack of 10 and rushed to order 100 more when i found out it’s discontinued

      even baby kangaroos i felt needed a bit of tlc. it’s a personal preference thing though
