    say this for an example, they give you the weight such as "150g" or "375g" for a particular style, and this

    you get three choices...

    if weight doesn't matter, then would they give you variety? and which one to get? heavier or lighter?

    also, it could be just for advertisement, but on the site, it says
    Designed with proper weight for improved shift feel as well as reduced miss-shifting

    I changed my stock gear nob with a big metal wolfburg one, it feels better in my hand and does feel different regarding weight, its easyer to throw around but adding performance of any kind i dont think so. Just feels better.

    its just a "feel" thing, like i said you change the rods on the 020 box's for less flex and better engaugment (sp!)
    isnt there a weight on the cable box's too???
