ahh, yea, didnt see the Gen2 label, but they are Gen 1's. The ones pictured will last a lifetime though, the newer idlers were better though just for a wear standpoint. I wouldnt worry bout it what so ever, if you need gears....those are a bargain. As long as he actually ships everything, you cant go wrong with that set up (cvds are probably junk and are good for just reselling). So if you get $40 out of the cvds, you are in a set of indestructable gears for $50...when the UE idler alone is $30, no brainer there guys.
