said .2 oz whis i guess is 5.5 grams.
So the moron on ebay sends me 5 gram sliders when i clearly ordered 5 gram rollers so Im basically where I started.
5.5 stock seems pretty light? I think I should try 4's?

I personally feel slider's work better & usually cost more.  Dave  |

 Why exactly wouldn't you want sliders? If you don't mind me asking.

have them also weigh your 5 gram sliders. You will find out they weigh 4 grams. I have tried and weighed every brand of slider I could find. All came out 1 gram lighter than marked. I believe part of this is a marketing ploy...as in...when you install them not only does their elliptical shape give you a smoother feel and 'shift'...but being lighter..your take off is faster. Get them weighed..you'll see...bet they come out as 4 gram although marked 5... ;D Many deny this to be true(cause they never weighed them)..but always recommend to Newbies to sliders "Go up 1 gram higher in weight than what you seek" Gee...why is that  Answer..they are 1 gram less than marked...ask my Pharmaceutical digital scale..  p.s. You will like the sliders better...ask around on here.. |

They seem fine although Im not really noticing an increase in take off compared to the 5.5 gram rollers i had. Maybe i need to try 4 gram?

A stock 50 you really can't do much to greatly improve performance, if you want big gains, put in a bigger motor, a big bore kit
