strongest gear I have ran is a sidewinder ti-moly


thanks for reply.. I was looking at ti-molly kinda of $$ , but thats what I was actually get at...is it worth the extra cash instead of having to buy 2-3 alum for same money?

someone sold 3-4 ti-molly used back a couple months ago , but i was too late for that deal...who is good people to get the sidewinders from?

In drag racing they are kind of heavy compared to aluminum tough. Also note, that if you keep your chain tight, you won't round off aluminums too quickly if you are straight lining.


yes, I need all the weight savings I can get ..thanks for that input..

My sprocket Specialist aluminum rear still looks new that I got last year and it has a TON of passes on it.
Getting another one next week...one tooth bigger.

I hate paying that price, however, after seeing how it wears...it's worth it. As said, proper chain tension is really the key to life on them.


Thanks for additional info. I will check out sprocket specialist ..
