    Default teflon slide that is the same as stock.. no loss of speed... found one

    Just wanted to let all you guys know.. i did some testing with teflon slides.. I found one that is the same specs as the stock elite.. and has no loss of speed.. tested a few different ones.. some hurt the performance... but this one has the same depth cuts.. holds cables at the same distance as stock...

    I'm not picking on you, but why change your slide if the aftermarket one preforms the same as stock??

    you will find that when it gets cold and damp they will chatter.. not all of them.. but it does happen with alot of non teflon slides..

    Would you please tell me which teflon models have largest depth cuts? I am looking for less cable clearance (lower profile vanes) and don't mind loosing some speed (I think that larger depth cuts make the cables act as "longer" thus making your D.L. shorter which explains lesser speed ...) or having to resync because of that.
    Thanks beforehand for the feedback.

    I just switched over to the Parker and it is a lot better in my opinion. My Elite slide was tearing my cables up. My dealer was not happy so he gave me the Parker. I wanted to paint it black but he said that the paint would break the teflon down over time.
