Ah help please with girth cylinder question.

[Jayjayjay112]

This has been baffling me hopefully some vet will help me.

My girth is just under 6"

Not sure what cylinder size to get as

A 2inch cylinder states its for a 6.25 girth

Now does this mean the expansion size 6.25 or your starting size?

Thankyou

Anyone?

Just don't want to get a siZe where I start packing the tube preventing me from expanding?

Yeah you would be good with a 2 inch tube. Maybe even 1.75 if you really want to pack it.

Thankyou for the reply, was thinking does paving the tube have any othe benefits besides visual pleasure? Does it slow girth gains?

Reason I ask is that I bought a pump with a gauge attached to it but it's a 3" size and with a silicone cover i still get alittle ball ache after a while so I sence it maybe big for me?

Keep it and pick up a smaller tube. Invest in your future, eventually the 3" tube will be filled too

Do not go under 2". I am 4.9 - 5 (pre-pumped) and I pack the bottom third of my 1.75" cylinder. You might want to consider a 2" Wide Mouth oval LAPump cylinder (base = 2 X 2.25), slightly smaller than a 2.25 round cylinder. Best pump choice is Harbor Freight break bleeder, brass with gauge and safety release. The reservoir allows you to water pump without ruining the pump.

Thanks for the reply, will check them sites and see if they'll ship to the uk, will go for 2.25" just to be safe.

www.thickwall.co.uk makes a quality cylinder in the UK

Thanks, that's site saved me alot of headache, ate there any cylinders that don't need silicon/latex sleeves as I've already ripped 2?

Good stuff!

Most thick walled cylinders do not require a sleeve. The walls are thick enough to prevent cutting into the fat pad. I have no personal experience with Thickwall Co, but quality US cylinders (Vacutech, LAPump, Boston Pump) are ok without a sleeve.

Whoops was about to order but have one more question.

The 2.25" cylinder states for girth at 6 inches from a website I'm buying from, now I forgot to mention is that my base is 6.5 and probably gets to 7 inches when pumped, now this is only base size, my shaft reaches nearly 6inches pumped.

Would it still matter?
