these are fully forged Japanese gears.

Yes there are cheaper gears about but in my experience they are not of this quality and quietness.
I will say I wouldn't recommend the Chinese ones ! They are diar.


Don't know about the Chinese or Spanish etc, but can you explain what's wrong with the Trail gear gears? I don't remember anyone breaking a set of those, and they are as quiet as a sammy t-box can ever be, so I can't think of any reason why these "original" suzuki gears would be any better...

And those are less than £400 delivered from the states for a set of 6.5 gears + the included replacement parts... :whistle:

Can you send me the link Paul.

Maverick - do you find the 2 low a big benefit? I presume this is similar to turning my vacum hubs off in 4L?
