Non-linear g29 spring - Banana4Life - 2016-11-29 14:36 Hello, I would like to find a non linear spring, to give a better feel to the pedal. I know some places like GTEYE and NIXM, but these are around $30/40, possibly more after shipping. I was wondering if you could get them somewhere else for much cheaper, somewhere from B&Q or somewhere like that. Attached is picture of linear vs non linear. Maybe even stronger spring would do? Thanks RE: Non-linear g29 spring - Angel - 2016-11-29 14:50 Hi. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GTEYE-Brake-Pedal-Spring-for-LOGITECH-G25-G27-G29-G920-Racing-Wheel-Upgrade-Mod-/151110442418?hash=item232ee25db2:g:B88AAOSwv0tVYC-v That costs 18.50 gbp (22.95 USD) with free shipping if thats the price range you are looking for. RE: Non-linear g29 spring - Banana4Life - 2016-11-29 14:58 Bit less on actual GTEYE website, still seems a bit much for a spring at £18, thanks tho RE: Non-linear g29 spring - Sam - 2016-11-29 21:22 http://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/enclosures-storage-material-handling/door-hardware/compression-springs/ 25x2mm is apparently the size you want. Edit: Might be worth putting a shorter length spring, then at the bottom put a couple of soft rubber spacers with a thin metal spacer on top to give it a more progressive feel? RE: Non-linear g29 spring - Banana4Life - 2016-11-30 00:09 Ah yes thankyou Sam! Just what I was looking for, I'll have a look tomorrow and maybe measure standard spring. Thanks RE: Non-linear g29 spring - Dizzle - 2016-11-30 03:13 Wait, what's this do exactly? RE: Non-linear g29 spring - Banana4Life - 2016-11-30 10:37 Putting a stiffer spring in pedals would give a firmer pedal feel. Could also put a small spring inside a big spring? As would feel harder towards bottom, not linear. Or some of those ruber inserts Sam posted RE: Non-linear g29 spring - Sam - 2016-11-30 11:05 The smaller spring wouldn't compress properly I don't think RE: Non-linear g29 spring - Banana4Life - 2016-11-30 16:38 So I made some measurements. So its free length is 6.1cm, diameter is 2.2cm, the max the diameter could be is 2.5cm with the material width being 0.2cm. So I guess I'll have to look for spring around that size RE: Non-linear g29 spring - Sam - 2016-11-30 16:44 Try find one that has progressively tighter coils at one end, will help with the feel a lot RE: Non-linear g29 spring - Nick - 2016-11-30 16:56 If it isn't a progressive spring it won't be non-linear, it'll just be more (or less) stiff while maintaining linearity. RE: Non-linear g29 spring - Banana4Life - 2016-11-30 19:38 Can't seem to find a progressive spring around the size I'm after. Can anyone help?
