Bargain or cheap rubbish ?

Whilst looking for a sprocket kit i found this on ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... K:MEWAX:IT Cheap for a kit!....anyone on here used this seller before ?

I wouldn't consider buying no-name sprockets/chains. You get what you pay for in that department (unlike many bike relate things!). Probably fine for a quick fix, but would definitely work out more expensive when the chain stretches and takes the sprockets with it.

Yeah I would second the opinion of superlite. While it would look decent and a good selling point on a bike your about to sell but if your going to keep it, well your really better splashing out for that DID version. Hunters on ebay are your best bet if you dont have a known supplier.

BTW I have heard mixed reactions about IRIS chains, so google them first for a lot of feedback.

Cheers for that guys, i did wonder if they might be like buyin cheap front disc's... all the DID chain ones ive found on fleabay look like they just have standard sporckets with the DID chain is that right

I helped a lad fit an IRIS chain at Cadwell last week and it looked well made to me... and as it got a good thrashing all weekend with no probs and no noticable stretch... but to be honest i only run DID 520 ERV3 chains. Col

Cheers col, there isnt alot of difference in price between the IRIS & the DID chain...think i'll go for the DID, is it worth the extra money for the gold one ?

In the meantime...http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... K:MEWNX:IT Thats what i call a bargain!!
