I can understand how this might cause a change in tiller over time as each core 'ages' differently. I hadn't really thought much about it.

I was just curious as to why a foam core limb might not experience such a change over time (apart from the perceived changes due to weather/temperature). Does foam not also 'age'/compress/whatever over time if, say, it came from a different batch for each limb?
