what exactly are the differences between the Dark Magic and the Dark Magic II. Because I JUST bought a Dark Magic 2 weeks ago and they just released a new one, is there anyway to exchange them or buy equivilent upgrades for my Dark Magic?
As far as I’ve seen, the axle, silicone pads (no more hybrid response for all you starburst haters - and o-ring haters at that), and the 3-gram weight difference are the only differences from the original. Also, it ships with both a thin bearing (think half SPEC) for responsive play and a standard C size bearing for unresponsive play. So to my understanding, this could eliminate the need for shims and make this a pretty solid throw. I’m honestly highly interested in trying it for myself.
Oh, and it uses translucent plastic to emulate the original release of the first DM.
Yah with the standard c bearing in it, it has a 4.95 mm gap which is to me perfect. I wasnt a huge fan of the original 3.40 mm gap, it just seemed to thin IMO.
