Hear out my crazy thought from this week…
I was thinking about how on a crank, the machine pulls at the reference tension, but then after locking out, the tension starts dropping. I remember seeing this for myself when calibrating my neos with a digital scale.
And I’ve now start tracking DT with an ERT300. As you’d expect, the tension is some amount lower than the reference tension. This had me thinking…. I’ve always preferred the FEEL of stringing on a crank vs electric. But I’m about to start messing around with a WISE for various reasons.
So here’s my thought:
- wouldn’t pre stretching on an electric tensioner then actually be sort of similar to lockout (just more consistent)? Essentially you’d be overshooting the tension pulled and then bringing it back down, which to my simple human brain seems really similar.
Wdyt? Why or why not?
