I have a full set of dr pulley 9.5 gram sliders i just got and a set of 10 gram koso sliders, the 10 gram koso were slightly heavy so i bought the 9.5 gram dr pulley set and its slightly light, can i mix the dr pulley and the koso sliders for 9.75 gram set or will the two different brands tear up something. Don't want to spend another 25-30 bucks

I'd like to hear the results. I know that Dr. Pulley and KOSO sliders are made out of different materials, so I would expect them to wear differently though...

Some will even alternate sliders and rollers to get the desired results. Just make sure to put them in a ballanced pattern so you don't cause vibration or harmonic stresses.

If you have a little patience you can drill out the metal collar on the inside of the sliders to lighten up the weight. On both a Honda Elite 110 and a Tomos Nitro 150 I switched over to sliders choosing the heaviest weight I thought might work. With a cheapo digital scale from Harbor Freight I was able remove material until I reached the desired weight. A little time consuming, but the only other alternative is buying multiple sets of sliders. It seems like a waste when you are only going to be using one set and tossing the other sets aside  I don't see any problem with mixing the Koso and Dr. Pulley sliders. The Koso's are cheaper for the same thing, I'm going to try those when my Dr. Pulley's wear out. |
