Weights can be purchased by clicking the add to cart button and proceeding with paypal checkout. Price includes shipping to your door via USPS parcel post. 5, 6 and 8 weight sets are available for vespa stock, camino 6 roller and utah variators.
These are 6061 aluminum roller weights that fit inside your stock vario
plastic roller covers to replace the brass or steel weights you are
currently running (that weight about 8 grams undrilled).
For those with questions about longevity - I have about 600mi on the set in my Vespa and the cages are perfect. The issue with using nuts, wire or anything that isn't 11mm in diameter, is that the plastic cage ends up pushing the vario cheeks together, instead of transmitting the force to the roller inside. The weight covers are only meant to slide easily - not bear load. This is why the nuts, wire etc. others have tried to use do not work or fail quickly.
6061 is about 1/4 the weight of the brass rollers. Each set weighs between 2.80 and 2.90 grams ea with no more than 5/100th's of a gram deviation between the sets you will receive.
These are 11x11mm. Drill/tap to add steel set screws/threaded rod for additional weight or just drill for less weight. These are a bit of a snug fit - they won't drop in, you have to use some force to push them in, but not much - it's a snug, but not high interference fit.
