Europa-List: Finger brakes cylinder

I spoke to Andy yesterday about my cylinders as there were still too
"sticky" to use.  The problem was the lip seal which was too stiff for the
spring to move once it had been pushed down the bore.  Andy sent me a seal
that he had on his desk of a new design and this arrived today and is much
better and does not stick.  The narrow part is about 18.6mm as against 19mm
for the original and this seems to make enough difference.  

When I rang Andy this morning he had just received delivery of these new
seals so if you are waiting for the stronger springs it might be worth
trying these seals instead.
