Good ole steel sprockets FTW!

vortex makes some decent stuff, sprockets arent among their decent products though. I'd rather run sunstar, JT, Renthal, or regina over vortex. I hear sprocket specialists makes some decent products.

You might as well carve a sprocket out of cream cheese...it'll last longer.

Pretty much what I have been hearing. I guess you get what you pay for, right?


Anybody using Driven?

I've been using Sprocket Specialists for years and they've always been pretty durable. I've had a Supersprox on order for a while, but it's taking some time to get because I have Marvics on my gixxer and the backorder list is huge apparently...

If you want more mileage than that, stick with steel.
