The reeds themselves are replaceable. You do not reed to replace the whole cage. Reeds are a common wear part, and the manufacturers expect you to replace them.

I've always stuck with stock reed pedals- seem to last way longer than aftermarket- just my 2 cents. ![]()

I'm with master. I stay with stock reeds.
And can you show a pic of this? The SIDE should not lift up.

It's all good. I took that pic when I was adjusting the centrifugal clutch on my powerband.

No, take that one off and flip it around. Most have a slight curve (to aid sealing). It should lay flat. If curved it likely just needs to be flipped around.

Are they Boysen Power Reeds?
I've used them but feel the stock ones (at least Yamaha) are actually better.
