Fairway grips installed added 11.56 grams.
Increase from Fairway leather and 17 grams from strings Volkl Cyclone Tour.
Hope this helps.
Project One 7 - Paul Reed order
First priority was 68 max unstrung flex. Probably the hardest part. 65 RDC strung.
Second was finished swingweight between 325-330
Finally, 330 grams max (knowing I would be adding Blutac and an overgrip )
Unstrung 300.5 grams / 10.6 oz
+ Fairway Grip +11.56 grams = 311.56 grams / 10.99 oz
+ Volkl Cyclone Tour 16g +17.29 grams = 328.85 grams / 11.6 oz
I added :
+ 9.375 grams of Blutack = 338.22 grams / 11.93 oz
+ Wilson Pro Overgrip (5 grams) + 343.22 grams / 12.1 oz

Thanks for the well wishes guys. Extremely frustrating not being able
to fly or play tennis. I will have been out of both for four months by
the time I return to work in mid March I heard today from the PA.
If you order frames, ask for matched racquet services with the
specific swing weight range you're looking for. I just asked for the
strung swingweight between 325-330 once the Fairway grips were
installed, with 7 points HL balance. This allows me to a bit of
Tungsten Putty in the buttcaps to get the strung weight to 342 grams
and make them slightly more HL.
If you want specific swingweight, strung weight ranges, balance and
flex it cost 20 bucks per frame after the $10 match service.
Paul Reed is a guru and fantastic!
