The gearing needs some work on my reflex
Take off is clunky and not low enough, also my gearing is too high under heavy load at top speed. I have a large hill that I should be going faster on, but my tach is 500 rpm below redline.
Variator weights are changed to do this. Bringing this weight down will improve my acceleration. Increasing the weights will improve economy.
The weights are 23x18mm.
