What are the benefits, if any, of carbon fiber reeds?

Posted by: TANNER250r

i wanted to know that to i know reeds add power but how
much

Posted by: dirtline

i could be wrong but from what i always heard is that a cf reed will add to the top end power becouse how stiff it is. as a thin reed will add more power down low. i think it all has to do with where and when the reed opens. maybe some one can add to this ...

Same here, those c/f reeds wont last as long as the fiberglass.
The fiberglass 2 stage replacement reeds for the Rad Valve is a # RL-19.
