   The correct answer is below in David post for any Steinway/piano. The question is too vague given the 150 plus years of Steinway iterations as well as the way they are constructed. The answer is still listed below

It isn't in practice. It will be whatever the action ratio dictates and there's no guarantee on any model what that will be.

Why is the keydip greater for Steinway S, M, and L pianos than for Steinway B and D pianos?  The keydip for the B and D is 390mm, while the keydip for the S, M, and L is 420 mm.
