New rearsets!

New rearsets!, a photo by Speedy Chung on Flickr.

I was pretty happy with my old Ebay rearsets - it was strong, well made, and cheap. But there few were draw-backs: the rest of the adjustments were meaningless to me, and it is a bit too 'wide' due to the double layers of thick aluminum. I have been looking for some time for replacement; but nothing came close to what I had before with the low price point. Unit last week I came across this rearsets. It's sold by Bohemian Racing here in Oakland, and It looks ALMOST EXACTLY like Sato's rearsets - design, finishes, hardware etc. But cost 1/3 of that's Sato asks for. You know, if it's a direct / close copy with that low of a price - it can't go wrong! So after a few clicks the rearsets were on the way.

Shipping was fast and package was nice. The quality of the reartsets and related parts were really good - all the movement had bearing installed, and all the parts were packed individually. Instruction and part list was clear, and the installation itself was a piece of cake. BTW, it came with EVERYTHING you need - that's one hell of a deal!!!

I specifically ask for silver color pegs. It's easier for cleaning but it probably looks better if it's all black. I may change it later... but so far I love the new rearsets! The only complain is the boot guard - the original one is too small too short. It just happens that I can just re-use my old boot guard. It looks great IMO. Can't wait to put her on the road... =)
