its funny you mention this, i was looking at one on ebay, brand new for $105 & it even came with the shorter belts, 10kw extra they claimed pffft they look pretty though, the only thing putting me off is trying to fit them

Yeah i have been looking at the exact same ones on ebay. Claiming 10kw gains. Thats why i posted this question, I didn't believe it could be that big a gain.

put the money back in your wallet and save up a little more for a light weight flywheel. That WILL make a difference.

Yeah, i'll try and find one second hand. Been looking for one but nothing has popped up. There were a few on ebay but they were new and around the 400 dollar mark.
