Iron Man Sprockets

[JPultz]

Hey just wondering if anyone has tried these Iron Man Rear Chrome-Molly Steel Sprockets. I'm trying to figure out if they're worth the extra money.
Thanks Jon.

I think I'll try one as well, they have a one year warranty. Paired with a quality o-ring chain it should last awhile.

You guys are being woo'ed by the shiny chromoly steel. I can buy 5 primary drive sprockets for the price of 1 iron man. In fact, I can replace my entire drive chain for less money than 1 iron man sprocket.

Ironman - $134.95
Primary Drive - $49.95 alum - $29.95 steel

Blake you make it sound like I asked if a shinny blue anodized master cylinder cap would improve my stopping power!! lol

I've been doing a bunch of research on these sprockets and from what I've found they're the real deal. Guys are claiming 200+ hours on them. On the Dirt Tricks website there is a pic of a 2 year old rear that's been through 15 rear tires that still looks good. http://dirttricks.com/sprocket-warranty
Anyways, I'm not trying to sell these sprockets to anyone. I simply wondered if anyone had tried them in the conditions we ride.

Yes, mine has 110 hours still looks brand new.

Where did you fellas get them from. Anywhere to get one cheaper than $135?

I got mine from Best Dualsport Bikes. $ 109 US but that was April 2014 and we were almost at par if I recall correctly.

Still shows $ 109 US which is roughly the same has Gnarly Parts in Canada.

Dirt Tricks directly is also $ 109.

Alright. I did it.

I usually change my complete drive chain (chain and sprockets) three times per season. (That may seem excessive to some of you but I ride excessively. Last year, I put almost 300 hours on my engine. Also, I usually replace my drive chain immediately before the Cord, just to be on the safe side.)

Three drive chains at $85 = $255

If the Iron Man sprockets last 200+ hours, as everyone claims, they won't cost me much more over the course of two seasons. I just bought a Ironman / Regina combo for $235. If I have to replace the whole thing at the end of June, I'm coming for you Jon!
