Ok, so who do we talk to about getting some Billet Gears cut... I have seen them available for bikes like the BUSA... I wonder if Kendall Berg knows someone....

Any thoughts if the new gears would help?

I wouldn't think they would be any cheaper than stock gears, it would be better to do a group buy by somebody in the US where they cost peanuts compared to the rest of the world

There's only a 4 or 5 problem gears in the whole box but unfortunately here in the UK you would be looking at approx £400 just for those, never mind another £150 for 3 shift forks

Even with the poor exchange rate us Brits would be looking at nearly half those prices.
