light weight pulleys for cheap....

so I wanted a set of lightweight pulleys. $300-340 for Go Fast Bits seemed pretty expensive in my eyes. Turns out most "brand" pulleys are just pulley kits from a Chinese factory screen printed with their logo...

I decided to bite the bullet on these for $65 shipped:



Came in the mail today. Very light weight. Identical in every way except for colour to the GFB. And at a fraction of the price. I'm very happy with them. I'm not one to cheap out on parts normally but for some machined aluminum pulleys I don't see how it's any risk.

Just like that silicone inlet hose you see there.... it's 5 ply... very tough.. and was only $50 because it doesn't have *insert company name here* printed on it.

I'll save the $$$ for the bigger parts that are very important, and figured I'd share in here for the people looking for a cheaper alternative. I found these on a popular auction site for those interested. Oh and they only took a week to get here

....& I guess I'll await the haters...
