According to the custom Bimba cylinders section on pg 7 of the pneumatics manual, 1.0625" bore pistons are not allowed. However, it is in the Bimba industrial catalog and update 8 seems to say that this would be allowed. Can someone clarify?

The industrial catalog is not a valid list of legal pneumatic cylinders. The order form for FIRST teams on the web page is.

I think update 8 meant that you could get any cylinder from the bimba catalog that was one of the bore sizes that first specified in the pneumatics manual.

You still have to use the bore sizes which are in the manual, however you can choose any of the strokes listed on the bimba website.

Only the three bores called out seem to be allowed, just the stroke seemed to be in debate.
