    Polini evo. Easily better than the MHR block.

    Use the search or the links page on the homepage.

    the vforce series of reedblocks was originally designed for the motorcross scene. and provides a better throttle response, so if its good enough for mx then it should be good enough for peds. but i think ive seen them on either
    scooterattack
    sip-scooters
    or scooter-center

    The vforce would normally be good but for stage6 to sell them as cheap as they do they had to change the reeds to shit ones.

    They are good if you cut some polini reedsheets into the right shapes. I'm pretty sure James did it with his.

    You can only buy them off scooter attack.

    just because it works for motocross it doesn't mean it's gonna work for scooters.

    MX bikes are constantly changing speeds therefore need sharper harsher throttle responses, scooters tend to be fairly steady in their speed changes therefore the throttle response isn't as important but the smoothness of the constant one speed running is more important.

    however the Vforce is a damn good reedblock.
