Limited stroke?

Well, if I read the rules right, we are limited to only cylinders which you can order from free for bimba, I know you can order more, but only of those types, correct?

Our team is needs something around an 18 inch stroke, and there's nothing of this kind on there, and the jump from 12 to 24 on the 2 inch bore cylinders seems like a huge hindrance. Considering we'll probably have to work with the 24 inch cylinders, we'll figure out a way to get them to work I suppose.. And the question I was going to ask is there a way to shorten the stroke, or stop them short, like maybe a sleeve over it? I'm not sure and ideas would be nice.

It's for a scissor life by the way, and we have ideas going around for how to work the 12 inch ones and the 24 inch ones into our design, but really not having anything in between is tough.
