the price is the kicker imo......


i can buy really good front and rears for 15-25
32-48


so i guess i could sell em to you for 79
179

and when they wear out just buy another set and keep the $


good tip though..kinda pricey.....if that company wanted to impress me they could sell lifetime sprockets at market cost...then it would smell less fishy...imo

a killer build always looks great with super nice tires and a trick chain ect...but they are wear parts...they sell gold chains and they can highlight custom work.....but cost a good chunk of a paycheck....

i like to be able drop a burnout if the mood hits me and rip around at 3/4 boogie most days...eats chains and tires and gold chains make shitty garbage can items

If I still have a nylon sprocket from the 70's does that make it a lifetime sprocket?

These guys are local to me and I know a few guys that use them and love them on their dirt bikes. Why should I pay 7x for a rear sprocket. OK I get about 12K miles on a cheap sprocket and roller chain about, more than double that when I use a "O" ring chain and chain wax. OK - $180/$29=6.2 Now 6.2x24000=148,800mi. OK at that point the rear sprocket has started to pay for itself, 148,800mi. I'll stick to my JT sprockets and Tsubaki chain.
