Don't currently have a set on me at the moment to measure myself. But for a possible project, l need the measurement of those limbs please if anyone can do a quick measuring for me.

Especially looking for how wide are the limbs, and how thick.

If you have them in multiple lbs, are the heavier limbs thicker? I assume the thickness at the pivot point is how they are getting different poundage from a mass produced limbs.

Been trying to find it myself but all I can find is that Sage limbs are 40mm? I think.

Thank you very much!

I have several sets of Sage limbs. 25, 30, 50 and a 40 coming from Red Beard. Do you still need measurements?
 
No, they are not the same thickness. This is the 25# on the left and 30# on the right. You can see a difference. The 30 is thicker.Screenshot_20220211-081259_Gallery.jpg

Now, below is the 25# on the left and my strung Sage on the right with 50# limbs.

The heavier the poundage, the thicker they are. If you want me to measure them for you I can this evening. Just tell me if you want metric or not and how far from one end or the other of the limb to measure. HTH.

Thank you so much. That's all I need. Just from looking at the picture it seem they add another layer of wood for every 5lbs basically. I appreciate it!
 
They probably use thicker glass for higher weights. There are optimum glass to core ratios for limb efficiency.

No problem. Let me know if there's something else I can do.

Wait actually yes. When you have the time. Are the end of the limbs that connect to the riser the same thickness? Your picture clearly show the whole limb is different throughout. But i would like to know if the pocket ends are the same measurements. Reason is l would like to put Sage limbs on this riser l found but it has a cut out into the riser for limbs. Would just be more aesthetically nice if limbs are flush with riser seamlessly. Thank you.

I can do that tonight and send you the measurements. I will all of them. I received the 40# limbs today.
