Umm ....
I think that actually the Rubiks.com 5x5x5's are the best ones. Thy
are more stable than the others. But of course the initial stiffness
is a big setback. I hope that my correspondence with Seventowns will
be fruitful. I have suggested some changes to the design. The reason
many prefer mefferts or the old 80's wahn is cause they use screws
and not rivets. I'd really love to see Seventowns switch to good
machine screws so one can remove the tightness and also adjust the
tension to ones liking easily. And also do those changes to the
outer edges. Like i have seen on Grant Tregay's cube it makes the
cube turn a whole lot nicer, probably eliminating many of the
problems with twisting corner-centers and popping edge-centers and
so on.
Cause right now most ppl's worry w larger cubes is to get a good
5x5x5. A good 5x5x5 easily saves u 30 secs or more on a solve. I
know this from experience. I could never get sub 3:00 consistently
on my old Wahn even after balancing the tension. The molding of the
pieces was not really good. Well, the kind of 5x5x5 really also
depends a lot on cubing style. Im very dependent on a high turn-rate
w my cage method. I gain solving time by faster recognition even if
my solution is a bit longer than the pairing-up approach.
Cheers!
