Made with highest quality aluminum
7075 T6 aluminum is the best grade material for light weight and durability
The weight you save on drive components is multiplied as rotating mass
Less rotating weight improves acceleration
CNC Machined to tightest tolerances
Our unique manufacturing process creates a perfectly concentric sprocket every time
This frees horsepower and extends the life of both chain and sprocket
Perfected tooth design has less drag and reduces friction for better acceleration and deceleration
Attractive, Smart Design
Vortex patented design offers a unique look
Standard sprockets have a bright, polished look; clear anodizing helps prevent corrosion
Mud grooves and coatings help keep components clean
All sprockets available in single tooth increments
NOTE:CAT5 sprockets are custom made and not eligible for return.

Thank you for your business.
Changing Gearing
Adjusting the tooth count in front and rear sprocket changes the way the bike performs.
A size increase in the rear sprocket and/or a decrease in the front sprocket will favor torque for increased acceleration.
A size decrease in the rear sprocket and/or an increase in the front sprocket will favor top end speed.
Gearing is a key variable in racing. Each rider, bike, and track will demand a different set-up. Though we cannot tell you which will work best for you, the most popular combination for a typical track-day would be a +2 Rear / -1 Front for increaseacceleration without limiting too much top end speed.
Weight Reduction Changing the sprocket to the Vortex aluminum rear sprocket and lightened front sprocket will eliminate considerable mass. This can be further reduced by converting chain and sprockets to a 520 size.
In a side-by-side comparison of a typical front and rear sprocket, we found these results:
Front Sprocket Weight Savings: .11lb
Rear Sprocket Weight Savings: .525lb
Total Sprocket Weight Savings: .635lb
Estimated Rotating Mass Savings: 2.54lb
520 Conversion Sprocket/Chain savings: 2.145lb
Estimated Rotating Mass Savings: 8.58lb
