Driven, Renthal, and Vortex are popular brand sprockets. Some people don't like the Vortex sprockets, because they're made out of the non-anodized Aluminum and wear fast, but that could be because of improper or poor chain maintenance. I had Vortex before switching to Driven, and they never gave me a problem even when they worn down to almost nothing. As for chains I've used DID and a EK chain and I personally couldn't tell the difference.

I have been looking around online and need to find a Chain Kit to order.. I guess I will go with a DID 520 and Standard Teeth Sprockets since I ride on the highway daily.. Renthal Sprockets and DID Chain.. Maybe these?

I do ride the mountain a good bit (couple hours at a time) when the weather is decent, that will probably have a large effect.
ok cool, THANKS for the reply with good advice.. I was quoted by a Local dealer in Woodbridge $500 to replace chain and sprockets... lol

Were you changing your gearing at all or just converting to 520?
