Essential Items when replacing Tire
[How is it used?
I use it every time I change a tire on my Racer YZF-R25.
In a race, the front wheel balance is especially important because of the speed range.
Since my vehicle has a slightly shaken wheel due to a fall, this is an even more essential item.
How was your experience with it?
I used to use Jay Trip's Weight, but this time I went with Battle factory because they had it in stock.
To be honest, it is just lead, so there is no good or bad, but Battle factory is Shiningly more Beauty to look at.
How did it compare to other products?
It is comparable to Jay Trip. If I had to say something, I would say how easy it is to peel off the adhesive side.
This is also difficult to remove from Battle factory, and even if you pry it off, the Sponge portion of the Double-sided Tape remains.
It's better than peeling off, so that's good.
I would also like to see a Black color since Coloring is only available in Silver.
I don't mind the Racer, but when I put it on my town car, it will stand out if the wheel is black.
[Points to note]
When attaching Weight to Wheel, be sure to degrease Wheel thoroughly before attaching.
Failure to degrease the adhesive part of Weight will weaken it, and it may peel off and fly away during driving.
I am lowering the Risk of skipping by dewaxing→pasting→Black adhesive Tape on top of the Weight.
I see that all the vehicles that run on Circuit are reinforced by taping on Weight.

The faster the Situation, the more important it is.
[How is it used?
I used it to replace the tires on my Racer motorcycle.
Was the one you received as per Image?
It is a weight, so it did not differ from Image.
It is surprisingly soft to the touch and can be bent to fit the curved surface of the Wheel.
Was the installation difficult?
Balancing the Wheel is tough without a Balancer.
If you don't have the environment to take the balance yourself, it is safer to let the store do it for you.
How was your experience with it?
The Balancer itself is designed to be attached with Double-sided Tape, but I put more Tape on top of the paste. When I tried to remove the tape when replacing it, it was very sticky, so I didn't feel like it would come off easily.
