Best most durable sprockets?


Recommended Posts

sprokets and chain should be replaced in sets.  if the sprokets that worn out  the chain is probably worn really bad.  my 535 eats anything but sunstar or PBI or sproket specialist fronts  and only thing that holds up is sidewinder rears. it would shred sunstar and jt rears in a day. switched to sidewinder  been on there for about 4 years.

 

sunstar are great f+back.  DID rkmxz4 or 3 is a superior chain.

If it's eating the teeth, I would start checking alignment and other issues like chain/sprocket fitment. Easiest way to keep the chain true, get a Round House carrier/arm combo. Keeps shit hüber tight.

 

As far as who the most durable, I would agree with Cam. I have had nothing but awesome luck with the sidewinder stuff but it is pricey. Other then that I have dabbled with the PBI and Sun Star. The Sun Star is on my bike currently and holding up well. Heard a lot about the Sprocket Specialists, but I've also heard about a few guys having trouble getting orders after paying.

There are tons of stories about Sidewinder not standing by their warranty on the internet.

 

I run PBI fronts and Primary Drive rears on our 18DMs and they hold up well.

 

When they start to wear I toss them. They're cheap enough that they can be replaced regularly.
