Next-Gen CVT Tuning: Dr. Pulley 15x12mm Sliding Weights
Standard roller weights rely on a rolling motion that eventually creates "flat spots," leading to sluggish acceleration and reduced top speeds. Dr. Pulley Sliding Weights utilize a patented wedge-shaped design that slides up and down the variator ramps. This unique movement allows the weights to travel further than traditional rollers, effectively broadening your gear ratio for a "best of both worlds" performance boost.
Performance Advantages
- Patented Sliding Technology: Eliminates the abnormal wear and flat-spotting common in round weights, significantly extending service life.
- Broadened Gear Ratio: Achieves a lower "first gear" for explosive takeoffs and a taller "overdrive" for increased top-end speed.
- Enhanced Re-Acceleration: Dramatically improves throttle response when exiting corners or navigating traffic.
- Self-Lubricating Material: Composed of a high-tech, low-friction polymer that reduces heat and wear on your variator ramps.

Tech Tip: For most 50cc Minarelli engines, a weight between 4.5g and 6.0g is the "sweet spot" for balancing acceleration and top speed.
