It looked very similar, but I pulled a small gear out of an old shimano cassette, maybe a 12 or 13 tooth cog, and tried to put it on the splines and it didn't seem to fit. Maybe I was doing something wrong, but there was a slight difference between the splines on the S3X and those on the cog that I tried to fit to it. It looked like something that I could have fixed by taking a metal file to one of the grooves in the cog, but I didn't try.
