60% vs 100% Inflation Girth Increase

let's assume that you're Titan goes from 18 mm up to 24 mm.

Anybody can answer this... but where did this number come from? It came up in one other thread but there is no indication of source.

Based on the rest of the post, I think these are just “for example” numbers.

My experience with the Titan is that it expands a bit at first, but after 50% inflation or so, it mainly just gets harder. It probably gains another mm or two, but it gets to size pretty quickly and after that the change is mostly in rigidity. This is ideal to me — you want to be at full size at any inflation level, and just manage how hard you get.

I lost a tiny bit of girth over my pre-op size, but I was already plenty girthy and don’t consider the loss to be significant.

Their 21 mm spec is based on testing at 15 psi. Are you calling that 50% because others have gotten it to nearly 23 mm just fooling around and that is not accounting for long term pliability and gradual stretch which we know they experience.
