“A user tested the Almot S51 cylinder kit and found that it required modifications to perform well. The cylinder head had to be planned to adjust the squish clearance, and the cylinder's channels needed deburring. After these adjustments, the user was satisfied with the performance, noting good power delivery and a top speed of 73 km/h. The user recommends the Almot cylinder, provided that some rework is done.”

“An unboxing and quality review of a 63ccm Almot cylinder set for Simson engines highlighted several quality control issues. The reviewer pointed out casting flaws on the cylinder head's cooling fins and poorly finished transfer ports on the cylinder, with leftover aluminum from the casting process. The sentiment is that while the parts are usable, they have clear manufacturing defects and require rework.”

“In a direct comparison with an original DDR cylinder, a user noted that the Almot cylinder initially had less power, especially at lower RPMs. The user also mentioned that they had previously only heard negative things about Almot products but wanted to test one. The general consensus in the discussion suggests that if an Almot cylinder comes close to the lifespan of an original DDR part, it might be worth the price, but there are doubts.”

“In a forum discussion about the quality of Almot cylinders and pistons, users generally place them between the lower-quality MZA parts and the higher-quality original DDR parts. It is frequently mentioned that rework is necessary to achieve a good fit and performance. Some users suggest opting for original DDR cylinders with new pistons instead, though others find Almot to be a viable, albeit imperfect, alternative.”
