I noticed that when Im accelerating to 30 the rpms are pretty even. Then around 30 or so its like a down shift occurs. The RPMS climb and the scoot takes off. What causes this on a CVT?

I have noticed this running sliders instead of rollers in the CVT.

That is the way it is supposed to work when you have the correct weights in. The way it works is when you first start off the rpms will climb say to 6-7k and the belt reachs it's highest point on the Variator for 50s around 30 or so and for the 150s around 40 or so then after that the RPMS should start to climb turning the Variator faster and you start to gain more speed.
If the RPMS bounce go up and down as your excelerating that means the weights are to HEAVY or if it is struggling to gain speed.
If the RPMS climb really high when you first start off that means your weights are to LIGHT and you will lose top end because the RPMS will drop at a certain point.
