Not implying they were Chinese but they used to sell inferior rubber items that were known for falling apart. I've had my own disappointments with MikesXS but they have improved lately.
Never had anything but wonderful experiences with Z1 and I hope that does not change.

Jeff.Saunders wrote: A couple more comments and clarifications. What helped initiate this merger with Mikes XS is that company changed hands 9+ months ago. The new owners of Mikes are actively trying to address the customer satisfaction issues so prevalent under the old ownership - and they are certainly not Chinese, but very much US...

Thanks for the update, Jeff. It is not always easy to find trustworthy sources for old KZ parts, so we all get a bit nervous when there are changes at one .

Thanks Jeff,
The clutch cable end parts I got from Mikes XS were very well made, and they came very quickly... highly recommended. I will likely be ordering more from them.
