Not really. I haven't heard of the rollers being too hard until this thread. What is supposed to be the problem with them being hard? I know that for a while, the sleeves for the housings were too soft and wore quickly. Maybe someone has got things backwards and thought that because the sleeves are wearing, the rollers must be too hard when it is actually the other way around. The sleeves are too soft. That said, I believe some of the better suppliers have improved them recently.
