Some teams including mine would probably pay extra for metal rhino pulleys. The performance wheels run more than the plaction wheel products so is that a similar parallel?

Obviously it is a little late in the season for a new run of products but is that option on the table or is it just too expensive in this case?
No, we are not going to offer aluminum versions of this pulley.

We strongly believe that our Rev4 pulley is very strong and will handle the application well. We have ran our first tests today using these pulleys and beat up our test mule like crazy. We will post a video shortly.

We are now running production of the Rev4 pulley and will have them available to ship out early next week (2/15-2/17).

Sincerely,
Andy B.
