life on them is about 1/3 the life of a steel sprocket. they are OK, in in the long run it is cheaper to get a steel one instead of replacing 3 aluminum ones.

Mine has lasted me almost a year now. I ride dunes mostly i dont know if that has something to do with it. I have a cheap tusk aluminum sproket that i bought for $29 and its works just as good as any other sproket.

Call C&D. I ordered a set of sprockets a while ago, and they were able to get me a steel sprocket for cheaper than a name-brand aluminum.
