That's unusual. Mine were ok. The brown low friction pistons are an even better fit. I'd be getting onto Serpent America to get another set of stock pistons as they shouldn't be like that.

Who is doing most of the development on the chassis? It screams like Andreas Myrberg might have had some influence

Any batch is limited quantity. Unlimited would be a little hard to do for a manufacturer.

It's lighter than the existing ERYX 4.0 out of the box and a MUCH lower COG. I'd guess the price point will be the same as the current 4.0 or perhaps a little bit more but certainly in line with the average market price for a TC.
