    I'm sorry, the only thing I can focus on are those cabinet doors. Pulls in the center? WTF. So weird!

    My early Lynx pivot pins backed out. 22D promptly sent me new toe assemblies at no charge. Excellent service 👍 Personally, I wouldn't want a softer plate. In fact, I installed the spring spacers for an even more active feel. EDIT: Based on the active vs. stiffness video Josh posted below- adding spring spacers increase stiffness, not activity. I think I have my SLIC pins in the middle holes.

    What does active mean, more force when you initiate the turn?
