Is that the same product as the SF-MX30? I shot JensonUSA an email and they gave me a very uneducated unsatisfying reply.

The mx and the dx are different. Thanks and please let me know if you have anymore questions.They told me that the 2 products are different, but didn't back up their statement. But on Amazon, the product is listed as Shimano SF-MX30 DX Single Freewheel (http://www.amazon.com/Shimano-SF-MX30-Single-Freewheel-Black/dp/B000AY5SW6).

So now I am super confused.

In all honesty, they are pretty much the same. Different names. And im sure something tiny is different with them but its nothing your gonna notice.

DX is shimano's bmx line.
MX is one of their mountain lines.

I have found that their platform pedals are cross branded, and crossed marketed. I would not be surprised if it were the same for the freewheel.

Lots of info you might not care about, but theyre most likely the same.
