Has anyone ever used a "Driven Chain and Sprocket" set?

    I ran a search and did not see any mention of this brand of chain. I have never heard of them before. So with that said, has anyone used this brand and what are your thoughts?

    I have been able to squeak out 28K miles on my OEM set and it's now time to change. I purchased an RK set online and they just called me and said they do not have an RK kit and want to replace with the "Driven" brand.

    Thanks, Mike

    I agree. Waiting for their call back to find out if they stock DID, otherwise time to go shopping again.

    A no-name chain could cost 1/2 a quality chain, but will wear out 2X quicker, so no real advantage.

    Dunno which bike you're lookin to redo the chain on but for my 6th gen with all the searching I did, sprocketcenter.com was definately the best deal for a good chain and sprocket kit. I would not hesitate to buy from them again.

    Can't find good quality chain and sprockets for less than about $165-$180.

    Avoid alloy rear sprockets.
