Ultramaxxed Gears?

[Gustav]

Looks like titanium to me.that doesn't mean a lot though in itself,some Ti alloys are rather soft.they look awesome actually.

If the idlers start to wear you can always put a steel idler with the Ti output gear,it's OK for the output gear to be a little less hard than the idler.Certainly looking at that set of ultramaxxed with the steel idlers would support that.


The genIII idlers were a high strength brass,presumably the hardness was somewhere between that of the input and output gears.They're weakly attracted to a magnet.

They have another set listed on e-bay,says they had them made at a cost of $500 with a 6 month wait,doesn't mention about having more than one set made.says the pulley is titanium too but it looks like aluminium,unless it's polished.i hope it's not a scam...

All of the gears and the pulley are made of steel. Probably same vendor/seller. Sounds similar to the auction I purchased these. I sent the guy an email prior to buying them in order to confirm that he was selling Ti parts...he indicated that they were Ti. I have been down this road before...pay pal is a good vehicle to to get a refund. I sent him an email that I would pay him $30 plus shipping...seems fair since that is a little more than what steel idlers cost. Lets see if he'll refund me some cashola. If he doesn't agree, then I'll dispute thru pay pal.

In all honesty...I am just as much at fault...I read Serum's warning and purchased anyway.
