..you're gonna fall in love with th malossi...

..ind the 5 gram rollers are gonna kick ass!!!

I was worried because my scoot shop was really reluctant to put anything lighter in when I asked.  I think they went with a mix of 6 and 5.5...

Not sure...

but, with the 6's and 5's I ordered I'm sure I can find a great mix to get me up those hills.

Would bigger weights be better if I went with a big bore kit?

[glopezz05]

woops.  getting 5.5's not 5g's.

Malossi is here.

Waiting for my variator tool to get here so I can get it on.

Too bad it's raining the next couple of days.

..you can use a pair of vise-clamps to hold the drive face....

..that's what i use..lol..

..hold it like the first pic, wedging the lever against a board, or your boot, to loosen..

..flip it over like the second pic to tighten...
