I heard bad stuff about them too, i brought a gear drive from them for the clevo, was told not to use it.. better off flogging it off on eBay, and investing in roll master timing..

Sometimes timing gears can be more trouble than they are worth, especially with the cheaper chinese product. You really can't beat the double row roller chain, unless you want the wanky noise.

Just let the exhaust do the talking :lol:

Well, it is the CAM we are degreeing in, not the crank. While its the crank sprocket that is moved, we still talk in cam dgrees usually.


care to explain how you get a lobe of lets say 290 deg of seat duration, however the base circle of the CAM is bigger than 180????

Its because cams are dialled in at CRANK degrees
