differential of terms funky calling the rollers as weights and the sliders as the little 4 piece parts that sit in the sides of variators, they tend to wear more when using dr pulley weights as they are forced out more, so worth getting the dr pulley 4 x sliders as well as dr pulley weights :D
The Dr Pulley roller weights I use are 16gs SkuTor

I do need to get eh Dr Pulley Sliders as the Standards have worn and are a little rattly :D

dont matter as long as you happy with them, i went to 24gms on the nexus and was ok a to b but clutch heat build up, and lost out on top end, the scoot wanted to go faster but weights were too low, so bought some 28gms and mixed them to make 26 total, that worked superb. so as long as you happy with your weights, good to know for other users :D
