Having ground down a pair of SRAM X0 jockey wheels (which [url= http://http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=22262 ]should outlive your bike[/url] - I see...) in 900 miles I'm looking for something more durable.

Before I spend the money, does anyone know if the KCNC ones a) work, and b) last any longer? Anyone know of any alternatives?

Ta

I killed some £120 XX ones in 40 miles, designed for nice dry conditions!

I just use Tacx, cheap, work well, last ages. Come with ceramic bearings too. Not tried the KCNC ones.

Thanks - I'll have a look at the Tacx ones.

i use[url= http://www.xcracer.com/shop/viewproduct.php?productid=65 ] these [/url] nice bearings and seem quite tough, can get them individually as well as the lower wheel seems to die quicker

I've had some KCNC jockey wheels on my bike for a while now and they seem pretty good, work well enough and last longer than my previous Shimano ones.
