Reed valves are used to
regulate and optimize the
gas flow during the intake
phase, to improve the
distribution at every speed
and RPM.
ADIGE® reed valves, used
by the most important
motorcycle companies,
are produced using an
aluminum or thermoplastic
base covered by a vulcanized |
|
special rubber based
compound (FPM, NBR or ECO),
gas and ozone proof.
ADIGE® reed valves are
available for the most
common 2-stroke engines
in a standard version or in
the following racing
versions: “Air Bag” and
“Power-Reed Valve”.

AIR BAG:
The ADIGE® “Air-Bag” Reed
Valve, specifically designed
for the Minarelli horizontal
engine, is produced with a
revolutionary system that
pneumatically cushions the
opening of the reeds during
the intake phase; in this
way the synchronism is
optimized for the required
performance, improving the
gas flow. |

POWER-REED VALVE:
The adjustable ADIGE®
“Power-Reed Valve”,
specifically designed for
the application on the most
powerful 2-stroke engines,
allow the rider, thanks to
the special structure of the
reeds, to control completely
the gas-air flow into the
engine, changing the power
curve of the bike and
adapting it to the rider’s
and track’s peculiarities.
The use of the ADIGE®
“Power-Reed Valve” creates
the following improvements:
• Increase of torque, due
to the better functioning
of the cranckshaft-pump
• Shift of the maximum
power point to higher RPM,
getting a better utilization
of the engine
• The choice of the thickness
and material of the reeds
and the set-up of the
reed itself allow the
changing of the power
curve to get the best
engine efficiency at
medium or high RPMs. |
