I bought the Mach V Signature 30lb wing from scubatoys last month. I found fromhere and here that Oxycheq makes wings where the bladder size matches the outer jacket. However, this week I discovered that my wing's bladder is too large for its outer jacket.

Deflated bladder = 76.5cm
Inflated bladder = 71cm
Inflated jacket = 62.5cm
