will the magnetic button work with these?

From everything Imeo has shown and said, the Stealth will be the full standard GGTS bottom tube, bottom cap and all. The video Imeo made even shows him taking his Stealth prototype and adding the additional pieces to make it a full sized GGTS.

I feel confident in saying that unless Imeo designs a better button for all the GGTS (which would include the Stealth) that your magnets will work with the new one as well. I am using a magnet button system on my GGTS and love it. :)

Regarding the button I have thought of a small modification.
Have you give thoughts of making reverse threads for the locking?! I think it would be a slight improvement because sometimes wheb trying to lock mine it gets loose! If the threads on thr lockibg were inverted this would not happen because when you were locking it, the bottom thread couldn't spin and vice-versa!
Hope you understand what I meant! ;)

if threads were opossite then button would went unscrewed again but when the lock ring was unlocked. We cant avoid this. Only in the way I made the new buttons:D Now when you lock it it cant get unscrewed. This time I didnt put the burr drill on the hole of the button so button screws tight on its hole Aldo:)

P.S.: will the numbers on the stealth GG continue the SS series or will them be a new series?! Since it's SS and will be interchangeable I'd suppose it will continue but as it is a new "model" the question arises ! Eeh

They will continoue Aldo:)

Very cool, Imeo, I'm glad I hoarded my 4 in 1 caps!!!:laugh: An aluminum version would be lighter, maybe in a couple months? Then again, I'm not into appearances, just function!!!:thumb:


I also unscrew my button occasionally when I unlock, its a major hassle.......:(

Wouldn't an o-ring between the button threads/seat and the GGTS make it more secure by adding some friction?

If I make it aluminium we will have issues like the aluminium 4 in 1 GGTS connector Ripple if you remember:)

yes poppa. But it will not look ok. So if someone has a problem with it he can screw a little more with pliers the base of the button where it touches the GGTS and button will never get unscrewed again. Its easy:)
