Reed Help

[Kerry255]

Anyone help with part numbers for replacement reeds for this reed block? It is off a 2011 EC 200 Six Days. I'm guessing the previous owner must have switched out the Vforce setup? Seems all the Boyesen reeds I have found have three screw holes and these only have two.

no help on part numbers, but I believe all 2011 200's came with boyesson reeds

After a few calls and emails to Boyesen I found the correct replacement reeds for reed block with two screws is PSR-115 (dual stage carbon) or RL93 (dual stage fiber)

What are the pros and cons regarding the carbon vs. fiber reeds?

I have been running the carbon reeds [LT] for about a year now.
The work great, both the 250 & 300 have great throttle response and very crisp off bottom. Seat of the pants feel is that the response is better than the Pro Series reeds that I replaced.

They come in two types, LT & HT
LT=Low tension [low RPM use. ie; woods and single track]
HT=High Tension [prolonged high RPM use. ie;MX or road use]
