Title: Are these sprockets any good?
Post by: veeref on July 02, 2006, 04:50:43 PM
I saw these sprockets on eBay.  I'm not in need of a new chain/sprockets yet, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to stock some of these for later.  I just wanted some honest opinions on whether these are decent and will wear well with a D.I.D. chain.

It looks like the 16-tooth sprocket I replaced with a 17T last year.   Can't tell much more from the picture and the text isn't very forthcoming with details.  Guess that's the gamble you make when buying off a place like eBay.

Will it last?  Don't know, but if you take care of the chain with frequent lubrication, adjustment and low abuse with the clutch & throttle, I'd say you have better than even chance of being happy.

I've never heard of the brand, but DID makes the absolute best chains.
