Rossco1991 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Hi guys, stripped my glanza today to do the piston rings, the bottom pully was proper stuck on there I did manage to get it off but the pulley is now f**ked, I have bin looking on the net and came across this fensport one http://www.fensport.co.uk/Parts/Model_40/Category_1/2311 has anyone used one and are they any good? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mk3 silver gt Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 I'm running 1 bud, had it on 2 years now and haven't had any issues with it at all. The reason I went for that 1 was that it's balanced which is a must on alloy crank pulleys Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rossco1991 Posted September 26, 2014 Author Share Posted September 26, 2014 Ah that's cool I heard some bad things about the light weight ones so was unsure of what todo as my pulley is now ko'd, thanks I'll be ordering one now Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mk3 silver gt Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Yeah its the same reason I bought one lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Being alloy lightweight and being balanced is all well and good, but its still not a harmonic damper pulley which is able to absorb vibrations. Instead those vibrations are transfered back to the thrust bearings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
abbott Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Fensports crank pully is harmonicly balanced tho as states that and if you speak to them also they will confirm Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Where and what did you study? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) Haha sorry dude.I'm a motorsport engineer and studied my degree at Oxford Brookes Uni.If you wanna know more about what I do and have done then drop me a pm I'll be happy to run through it with you 😊 Edited September 27, 2014 by AdamB Quote Link to post Share on other sites
