Milwaukee Bicycle Co. Cogs
Anyone tried the MKE cogs? They look decent, made in the U.S. machined, etc.
It's between these and a dura ace.
thanks.

I just really want a Milwaukee Bicycle Co. part on my bike so I went ahead and got one. Sorry Japan[I'm still wearing Sugino cranks though].

well that's awesome,
but if there's one milwaukee part to put on your bike it's the crusher.
okay, or maybe the pologuard.

Aside from the pretty slick look of a dura-ace cog is there really any advantage to X cog over Y cog... seriously? I had an EAI cog for a while and it looks dope compared to my current Surly piece of ****, but they both function the exact same way. Can't see anyone busting a cog in half either, or breaking teeth off.
Do they wear down to little reptaur nublet teeth or something?
