Does anyone sell chain and sprocket combos anymore? Not like primary drive, but quality brands. Haven't been able to find any yet.

Straight up dude, Mika is low key one of the best brands. The longevity of my sprockets and chain, and a lot of that time in sand, is amazing. There a lot of quality hard part options- but I suggest Mika.

My dads been running their stuff and loves it. The only problem I have is something is always on backorder so I can never get everything at once.

Haha, Mattybro! Glad I could help. Honestly though, I REALLY like this sprocket. Buy a good chain and go with it.

Primary Drive sprocket/chain combos from Rocky Mountain...cheap...and last forever. Only draw back is that when you buy the combo it only comes in stock teeth counts.

If you are going the cheap route I would suggest JT steel sprockets...combine it was a quality chain of your choosing and forget about it. I used to run aluminum rear sprockets...right up until the time I started paying for my own parts...

They definitely aren't the prettiest but I am a JT customer forever now. The life on them are exceptional especially for what our shop pays. The aluminum stuff looks cool, but weekend warriors like me will never be held back by a steel sprocket.

I think the o ring is a gimmick. It robs power and your front sprocket will always wear out first. Then I think you should replace everything. What do yall think?

40% off vortex sprockets and chains if you call and mention pulp MX. I'm using them on my 450 and they're good.

Idk, o-ring is pretty nice on my KX450. I think I had to adjust my chain two or three times last season? I always ran Rental or DID unsealed chains before that and had to adjust every few rides. I still need to replace the sprocket just as often, but the lack of maintenance between rides as appreciated. I do run unsealed on my 125 though, due to the added friction.

Scroll to bottom and read what they have to say about the difference between, sealed and an unsealed chains. It's interesting.

How do Dirt tricks sprockets compare to Supersprox?
Edit: Sorry forgot to include that Superprox offers chain/sprocket combos.

lol,

"lets use science"
and
"my method is"

sorry thats an opinion
it has to be proven by peer review,
many times before its actual science.

"but i can sell you one of these"
there in lies the rub...
