    What do you spend on replacement jockey/pulley wheels?

    It gets even more bullshit than that

    Having actual bearings in the pulley instead of just a bushing is probably worth an extra few bucks though.

    Apparently not enough


    these hollow 3D printed titanium pulley wheels are 5-10% lighter than our original titanium Pulley Wheels


    Dude, 5% off 8 grams? I am so there.

    OK, wow. So this is a thing. Who knew? There is clearly a market for thousand dollar jockey wheels.

    I don't know how many rides I've been on where it's just obvious I'm getting way too overtaxed by the rotational mass of subpar stock derailleur pulleys.

    Obviously I'm not alone.

    I prefer skid that skids the mostest #skidlife

    Those pulleys were always more bad then good. Little bearings foul up , seize, and screw your shifting if your derailleur didn't rip off. Maybe they're better now

    I've been riding ball bearing XTR pulleys for years. They are noticeably better than bushing pulleys.
