I don't notice a difference.
Just spend around $20-30 and get a decent cog. Dura Ace, Surly (which are super beefy), etc. No need to splurge, and no need to skimp. It's a few dollars of difference between a generic crap cog you can find in a bin, and a well-regarded branded cog, but a HUGE difference between those and the "nice" cogs.
I already have a eai cog on mine. Just seems like it's almost done...bought the bike second hand. I'm getting the eai gold and the Izumi super v for a really good price.
So the deal was pretty good. Right time at the right place I guess......
We'll see how it rides, hopefully it's not raining in Dallas for a straight week after I get parts on it........wait it is going to be raining for a week. DAMN!!!
Why does this always happen after I get new parts?
