Stage6 Variator Roller Weights Maxidrive (8x) 25x15mm - 16g
High-precision coated roller weights sold in sets of 6 for optimum variator adjustment. The 25x5 sized ones are usually meant for maxi scooter CVTs; these ones are used in the Maxidrive CVT by Stag6. They are made of durable plastic. With only minimal tolerances (less than 0.05 gram) they are probably the most precise weights on the market. For easier identification, the rollers have size and weight printed on and additionally lasered onto the inner rim.
Please put some grease on the weights before inserting them into the variator.

CVT Weights
CVT roller weights, also called variator weights, play an essential role in the performance of scooters, maxiscooters and mopeds with CVT transmissions.
The CVT is responsible for transmitting engine power to the rear wheel of the scooter. It consists of several components, including the variator rollers. These roller weights, which are usually made of plastic or metal, sit in special tracks in the variator. Weight and diameter can vary depending on the scooter model and manufacturer.
Lighter or heavier weights?
The right weights can noticeably improve the performance of your scooter. The weight of roller weights has a direct effect on acceleration and top speed. Basically, lighter rollers lead to improved acceleration, while heavier rollers increase top speed. However, if the rollers are too light they may improve acceleration too much at the expense of speed. On the other hand, CVT rollers that are too heavy can improve speed while severely compromising acceleration.
To experiment a bit with different weights and find the best balance, we recommend getting a variator tuning kit with different weights. We also recommend buying a piston stopper or a CVT blocking tool so you can quickly disassemble and reassemble the variator.
