I have cut my own from the 0.25 Polini Carbon sheet fro PM. They have lasted longer and tend to start to "fray" when wearing rather than just snapping as the supplied reeds seem to do.
The carbon reeds seemed to have a bit more of an "on/off" feel about the ride which I put down to the carbon fibre being much stiffer. I have now gone back to the original reeds as I feel they provide a better ride but replace them yearly which has worked for me.

I think Eden is his right hand man.

Wrong Taylor, Eden is involved with Richard Taylor (Mr GT) not Darrell.

From the CST thread...
" I have double reeds. Just spoken to Richard (Taylor) now and he advises against thicker reeds. It’s not a massive problem but I’d let my spare reeds were at home. "
It was a massive problem for me 80 miles from home with no spares when mine went....
Im a bit confused now,....
GT186 / 200 / 240 + clubman = single reeds ???????????
GT186 / 200 /240 + expansion = double reeds or not ??????????? -
What was the reason for Richard advising against doubling up ?
What is the effect on engine performance / characteristics with double reeds?
...........And why do they seem to break frequently with a GT / expansion set up?
Is there another way to prevent this occurring?
