If you get sidewinder, make sure you ask them if the sprocket will fit over the sprocket hub. Removal of the axle and axle carrier to change out a sprocket is unacceptable to me. Also, be leary if your sales guy wants to "throw in" a few cans of their own chain lubricant. My sales guy decided to "throw in" 4 cans of that **** with a $50 charge on my Visa. To made things worse, it rusts my chain. I tried to talk to the owner about the problems, but the sales guy said he was in the Bahamas on vacation. Riiiiiight. It appears he got what I paid for.

I said the part about good salesman tongue in cheek, you know? Did you tell him no, and he charged you anyways? He led you to believe you were getting 4 cans of lube at 12 bucks a shot for free? If you would told him no I don't want any lube, I don't think you would have gotten any, or would have been charged for it.
I'm not sticking up for the guy, but he is a salesman. Did you think you were talking to the Pope? I was only really commenting on the quality of their sprockets. If you want to be mad at him for suckering you, I don't blame you. But that front sprocket they sell is very high quality, imo.

I think the purpose behind these forums can best be summed up by everyone's experience. Personally, I don't give a rip about the money, and I have sprockets up to my neck and I keep thier chain lube as a trophey for what not to do, right along side my HiperTech DS650 wheels. But I would never subject anyone of my quad friends to SOME of the quality issues that they clearly have. Me, I want the best manufacturer with the best service.
Additionally, does it make sence that if they have a quality control so obviously wrong, that they might have other quality control issues with other sprockets? Also, if the salesman knew there was a problem, and they sold the sprocket anyways, doesn't that tell you they are more concerned about dumping bad products than keeping happy customers? And, if both of those are true, do you really want to support someone with that mentality?
To each his own dude! Do you feel lucky?
