Dr. Pulley 23x18mm Round Roller Weights - 250cc/300cc CVT
Description
These Dr. Pulley 23x18 Round Roller Weights (SKU 169-252, MPN RR2318) let you fine-tune the CVT on 250cc and 300cc liquid-cooled scooters, go-karts, and buggies. Made from Dr. Pulley's low-friction composite, they resist heat and wear better than standard nylon rollers and give smooth, consistent variator shifting across the powerband. Sold as a matched set of six in 18g, 22g, 24g, or 26g.

- Heat resistant: Holds its shape under heat and heavy loads without flat-spotting.

Roller Weight Tuning Guide
Going lighter than your current rollers raises engine RPM for quicker launches and better hill climbing. Going heavier lowers cruising RPM for smoother, more relaxed riding and a higher top speed. Most riders change 2g to 4g at a time and test from there.
Installation Notes
Make sure the variator ramps and center boss are clean and dry before installing. Use brake cleaner and a lint-free towel to remove belt dust. Do not grease the rollers; Dr. Pulley composite rollers are designed to run dry.
