Re: Need for Aluminum Gears and Sprockets?

I would definitely be interested as long as prices are reasonable. If he can keep prices anywhere near andymark prices then it would be a definite hit.

It would be great if he could make aluminum versions of the andymark shifter gears to cut down weight. Also if he could make a kit of 2 gears to increase the reduction in the andymark shifter without adding an extra stage of reduction. Something like a 60 tooth output gear with the dog pattern and a 52 tooth input gear on the first stage. Those numbers were just a guess but An upgrade for the andymark shifters for more reduction would be awesome.

I also think focusing more on hubbed sprockets would be better since flat sprockets already exist from andymark and they work well as is. A high quality hubbed, hex-keyed sprocket however would be perfect and we would definitely buy them.
