Why Tune Your GD EDC Reborn 2.0?
The GD EDC Reborn 2.0 Magnet Slider is designed for customization out of the box. Whether you prefer a smooth, quiet slide or a crisp, tactile snap, you can adjust the slider's feel and sound without any special tools. This guide walks you through the supported modifications so you can dial in your ideal fidget experience.
What Comes in the Box
- GD EDC Reborn 2.0 Magnet Slider: The GD EDC Reborn 2.0 is brand new, sealed and boxed, with all accessories included. Factory-installed magnets are N52 strength; accessory package magnets are N35 strength. You get two magnet strengths right away, so you can try a lighter push without buying extra parts.

Step-by-Step Tuning Adjustments
- Swap Magnets for Different Resistance: The factory N52 magnets provide a strong, snappy feel. Switching to the included N35 magnets reduces magnetic pull, making the slider easier to push. The single-sided magnets require no adhesive, so replacement is simple.
- Adjust Bead Count to Change Segment Feel: The beads sit securely in the interlayer and won't fall off during play. Changing the number of beads alters the number of segments: 7 beads create 1 segment, 5 beads create 2 segments, 3 beads create 3 segments, and removing all beads creates a floated slider (use the included sticker to reduce friction). More segments generally produce a softer, more articulated motion.
- Add or Remove Rubber Rings to Tune Sound and Feel: Rubber rings dampen the impact between the slider layers. Removing them makes the sound and feel more crisp and direct. Adding them softens the acoustics and smooths the travel. Experiment with one or both rings to find your preference.
DIY Proposal from the Manufacturer
The included documentation suggests a simple starting point: swap the N52 magnets for the N35 set if you want an easier push. After that, remove the rubber rings to hear and feel the mechanism more clearly. These two changes alone can transform the slider's character without any disassembly beyond the magnet swap.
What to Keep in Mind
All adjustments are reversible, so you can return to the factory setup anytime. The slider ships from China, and tracking becomes available within 2–4 business days. Delivery typically takes 8–14 business days after tracking is provided. If you plan to use the floated configuration (no beads), the sticker helps reduce friction between the layers.
