                Ring Lube 

                On even layer cubes, the center pieces (under the outer layer) do not rotate, rather a ring on top of the center piece rotates with the face. In order to provide controllability and smoothness, lubing this ring is necessary.

                Magnets 

                Magnets give your puzzle a distinct snap when the layers align as well as providing stability and control.

                • LightThis option will give you the lightest, most subtle magnetic pull between the pieces. Good for one handed solvers.
                • StandardThis is our recommended magnetic strength. It gives the puzzle a moderate magnetic feel.
                • StrongThis is the strongest magnetic strength which ideal who want the most tactility in their cube.

                Gear Compression

                • 1-9Compressing the springs makes the spring travel distance shorter for less flex with a more controllable feel. Compression Level 1 is no compression and Compression Level 9 is max compression. We suggest a compression of 6-7.

                GES

                The GAN Elasticity System is a set of interchangeable springs that changes the feel of your puzzle.

                • YellowThis option is the strongest spring and provides a more snappy, controllable feel.
                • GreenThis option is a bit weaker, but still provides decent controllability.
                • BlueThis GES option is on the weaker side and will make your puzzle fast and less controllable.
                • PurpleThis option is the weakest spring, meaning your puzzle will be extremely fast and uncontrollable.

                  Numerical GES Tension (For GAN356 X)

                  • 0.6 - This is the tightest setting on the numerical GES. It is the most controllable and stable setting.
                  • 0.8 - This is a slightly looser feeling setting, making the puzzle less stable and faster.
                  • 1 - This is the loosest setting on the numerical GES. It is the fastest and least stable option.


                  Tension (For GAN356 XS)

                  • 1-4 - 1 is the tightest and 4 is the loosest.


                  GMS

                  The GAN Magnetic System is a set of interchangeable magnet capsules that allows you to change the strength of magnet in the puzzle.

                  • ClearThis is the strongest magnetic option and provides very noticeable feedback when you align the layers.
                  • YellowThis option gives a slightly lighter magnetic pull.
                  • GreenThis is the lightest magnetic feel GMS. This option would be best suited for one handed.
                  • NullThis option makes the puzzle non-magnetic.

                  Valk 3 Elite M Interchangeable Magnetic Center Caps

                  The Interchangeable magnetic center caps add another level of customization when it comes to the magnetic feel.

                  • Red - This is the strongest magnetic option. These center caps give the most control and stability.
                  • Clear - This option gives the most balanced magnetic feel. A great mix of speed and controllability make this a top choice.
                  • Green - This set of center caps has no magnets. Using this option relies solely on the weak edge/corner magnets installed in the puzzle for stability.

                  Valk 3 Elite M Interchangeable Springs (Elasticity Nuts)

                  The Valk Interchangeable Spring system is very similar to the GES from GAN. They are interchangeable springs encased in plastic that give you puzzle varying feels.

                  • Red - This option is the strongest and gives the most controllable, snappy feel.
                  • Clear - This spring is the medium option. This gives the most balance between controllability and speed.
                  • Green - This is the lightest spring option. The set of springs gives the most speed, but possibly at the cost of stability.

                  MGC Elite M Spring Compression (Elasticity)

                  This is a dial you turn with your hands to adjust spring compression. It can be adjusted clockwise or counter-clockwise from 1 - 6. 1 is the least compressed, giving the loosest, fastest feeling; and 6 is the most compressed, giving a slower, more stable snappy feeling.
