A fairly radical change in layout for both moving pieces here, including a new 'click' indexing system.
We've overhauled the lead screw drive system, reversing the motion from the Screw that previously moved through the Adjuster, to the Screw and Adjuster being combined and engaging within the D-Cell and Riser systems.
The results?
Firstly, no threaded Screw section is exposed below the Adjuster as before:

More relevant from an operational point of view, is the introduction of stainless steel sprung bearings within each mechanism, providing an audible 'click, click, click' through 16 positions of each 360 degree turn (5 x rotations in total, so 80 x indexed positions).

These changes will feature in all new builds placed from the beginning of May.
