I would definitly go with the v force reeds. They work great. I ran a rav valve before. The v force works much better on top.

I run 95% tight woods and hillclimbs and switched from a boyesen rad valve with a spacer to a vforce and spacer. The vforce is much better in my opinion. Dave

a 250R will never have the lowend of a 400 foreman.

my take is go with the Vforce and a spacer.

The V-Force Delta 2 has adjustable petal tension. They come at the stiff setting and I believe the soft setting is for low end.
