Thanks for the information. Both units have the tubes with one side flared. The S5 most definitely has the original tubes. I was just curious if there was a change in supplier or something similar. Maybe I'll look into the solex aftermarket Teflon tubes for the S5

The diameter of the bowden tubes is the same for the both the S5 and S3, but the length is different. (750mm tube on the S3, 850mm tube on the S5). Since they're second hand, it's possible that one of them may not have the original tube, so you could be seeing a difference there if one got replaced with a third party tube.
