I've only heard bad things about them. Mostly that their lifespan sucks and they chew up chains. I'm sure Gas posted pics at TWF.
They offer custom from 10-122 teeth. Dayum that shit is off the wall. You could pop wheelies in 6th from a stop.

I have a vortex Aluminum and a DID chain. For 1-2months I never cleaned the grease that came on the DID off and the sprocket doesn't show any wear after I cleaned it. (I know not smart but what's done is done)

However looking at that Titanium one I'd probably go to that when I replace my chain and sprocket. Wether I go to 520 I don't know.

I believe my buddy with a RC51 has that conversion. I know when I look at hte sprocket it looks smaller and thinner than mine which is standard. If that can take it from a heavy TQ monster such as a RC51 I'm sure a F3 that may be pushing 90-95hp to the wheel can handle it too.

Of course I know very little.
