SUPERMOTO WHEELS

[Darty]

@tdr125greg Interesting, my DTX 05' wheels are Takasago' Excel rims.

I wonder if build quality is different?

[Zrako]

@Darty yeah. Mine too

[tdr125greg]

@Zrako @Darty that is interesting.

Are they also stamped like mine?

[Mightyman]

Interested to see how these will look on the bike! The older model TDR had similar sumo style wheels but haven't seen them on a newer model one.

[tdr125greg]

@Mightyman yeah your right there bro the mk1 tdr had spoked wheels, i did look into getting a set but again the front was still 18" and being from the older model, finding a nice clean set that dont require any refurb work was a tall order.
so i went for the Excels.

@Mightyman @Calum @Darty Thoughts on this please gents.

"looks" like a bolt on for the wheels i have.
main question is overal value for money

[Darty]

@tdr125greg Alloy sprockets are lightweight for Off-road racing.

It goes without saying, Alloy sprockets wear real quick, I got about 800 miles off mine

I recommend a steel sprocket

[Mightyman]

Yeah I'd probably stick to steel as well if they wear that quickly! Unless you are VERY keen for the colour to match up.

[Calum]

I have only used ally and never had any problems with undue wear.

But that said I haven't ridden a bike in 2+ years...

[tdr125greg]

the steel ones sound like the "sensible" option but dayyym i think the alloy ones do Look great!!! can anyone point me in the right direction to find a nice shiny blue renthal/talon/like for like 57t sprocket for my wr125x wheels.????

much appreciation in advance guys

[Calum]

@tdr125greg I personally would ring arracing.

They are muy first point of call everytime and deal with renthal directly. As such custom sprockets can be made upon request.

[tdr125greg]

@Calum 100 points to you sir!!!
