cheap cogs are capable of stripping a hub's threads' as well. same sensation as dropping a chain, not fun.
In fact I run full 3/32” drivetrain including my chain & cheap...errr...less expensive cogs that never gave me any problem. Dura ace is one of the few rings I can find in my size but tooo expensive…
So no disrespect intended to sickz but can anyone here speak to his veracity? Yeah, I see that he's a member of BF long before most any other of the guys here but never saw him around this place til a few days ago...and he's been non-stop posting since?
