You even have me pretty well convinced to try them. I'm DIE HARD MALOSSI, but the design of the slider does make sense. Rollers don't really "roll" anyway! Just kinda rattle a little bit.

I have been running 5.5s ( Dr. Pulley ) in my scoot until recently when I went back to 5.0s ( round ones ), but although the 5.0s take off better the difference in acceleration between them and the 5.5s is too noticable.  I will try the Dr. Pulley 4.5s that I have to see if they strike the right balance.  In my chinese scoot they kept the RPMs too high, but for some reason I think that they will be closer to optimal than the 5.0s.  I had a set of 4.7s once, and they ran great in the chinese scoot I had but the 4.5s revved too high.  I think that the set up in the Agility is enough different that it might like the 4.5s better, but I was wondering if anybody else had tried that weight in them ( I know that alot of people in the UK seem to run that weight but it seems that their setup is a little different out of the box than in the US for generic chinese scooters - and I was wondering if the Agility is more like theirs ).

...well, it seems that my Agility is somewhat different than some of the others around...

..i ran 5.5 for a long time..and loved them..but these 4.7s do give me much quicker acceleration, and have not reduced my top speed any at all..last week I ran the fastest i have ever ran on the old girl...the rpms are high until i reach about 35 mph, then she drops back into a smooth, lower rpm acceleration up into the 45 mph range...i am more content with my scoot, right now, than I have ever been...

peace

when I order my rollers the seler sented me a wrong set of 4.5 gr instead of 5gr ...and .. I don't really like them ... the  engine runs like hell ,high rpms at start and without any signifiant increase in acceleration... top speed 75 with stock variator ,but I don't think the speed is accurate ...I don't know if it is even 65 km\h
