Their sliders are good, but I wouldn't recommend their clutches and variators. The reason being that you can buy Malossi/Polini stuff for less, and we all know that's good quality. For example, the Dr Pulley clutch is more than the more adjustable Malossi and Polini equivalents.

The Dr Pulley sliders are great. I switched to those some time ago and hate it when I don't have the right size around and have to use rollers now. lol They don't wear very much at all and they improve "shifting".

The clutch-spring-system sounds really smart, but a new clutch wouldn't be on my list for this season anyway.
Okay, they tell something about a 15% increase with new rollers and sliders. I can't belief this :S
I got a Malossi Multivar. Do you use it with the stock variator as they recommend?

I've used sliders in stock variators, 4-5 Malossi clones, and aftermarket models for 4Ts. I've been pleased in every scenario. I wouldn't plan on any 15% increase. It's just like tuning with any other roller weights... If you are out of tune, it'll help a lot. If you are setup pretty well, going from rollers to sliding rollers will help a little, noting miraculous. One of the biggest selling points for me is the fact that I don't have to worry about flat spotting roller weights. The sliders last a long time under "normal use". I did manage to scar a few, but that was from variator mods that were kind of rough on the weights or failed completely.

Hey Brent, do you use the same weight sliders like you would for rollers? I ride about 200 miles/week and my rollers get flat spots so fast.

Sliders usually have to be just slightly heavier to get kind of the same results as rollers. Maybe .5 to 1g. Sliders would be a very smart move for you I think.
