Swapped this variator with the polini vario I was previously running (same contra same weights)and it variates a little later ie. revs a bit higher under the same weight. Still gotta tinker with the weights a bit but that's mopads.
-- The Polini Ramp plate guides fit this without issue -- 1 of the 3 ramp plate guides was not the right size even though the package was sealed ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The inner ramp plate is not curved for the entire diameter. the outer edge is flat. Maybe it wont variate past that? I dunno
The shaft is a very tight fit into the inner plate and ramp plate and is difficult to separate. Is that good? idk.
the included rollers were pretty rough and needed a little finishing.
The bike definitely feels a little faster even though it is not. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ magic I guess
