I was wondering if those aluminum rear sprockets last very long, like the ones from Rebel? Any input is appreciated. Thanks :D

Hell na! They are made for saving weight. Hou much weight would you save in a sprocket? My choice is the Sidewinder Stealth.

im my opinion, aluminum is way too weak for a sprocket, it might work on a 50cc or something but i dont think itll hold up to higher horse bikes

i have a renthal and you can tell its high quality, i believe it was $25

Aluminum sprockets have no business on an ATV as far as Im concerned. I got an aluminum renthal for the rear of my bike (and paid around 50 bones for it) and it was chewed up after 4 races and practice... My new love is the Sidewinder Tool steel sprocket, I havent found anything of higher quality yet...

an aluminum front sprocket wouldn't last the launch in a race dude.. lol, that's why they dont make them, the aluminum rear sprockets are pretty much made to change inbetween moto's

Thanks for all of the replys. My friend bought an aluminum rear for his 300 and it was chit in about 4 rides. I was just hoping he'd bought a cheap one and they were some that would actually hold up. It's the only one I can find for a 300EX that's 33T. Anyone know another company that makes 33T rear sprockets for a 300? Thanks :D *Already tried C&D about a week or so ago w/ no response, gonna try again though. *
