If you are talking about spool, I like the D&D Machining's spools that are on ebay. I got some and they look and work great for the right price.

I checked out the link to america sport bike and they want $80 for just the rears. After seeing that, I'm even more pleased with what I got from D&D Machining. They have rears for just $50 on ebay and they offer many other styles and combinations also. I'm into getting the best product for the least amount of money.

Never heard of the D&D ones before, but I can personally vouch for the ones that American Sport Bike and 5-0Dro sell as being high quality. I've crash tested the American Sport Bike/DHM spool sliders before, worked as advertised and I can easily replace the end cap without having to replace the whole slider.

Also regarding the price, American Sport Bike has other models that are cheaper, and still proven to be effective at protecting your bike.

I just slip a piece of threaded rod with a sleeve of electrical conduit over it through the hub and lift it with the T-rex. Hint: tie a string on the rod and lay it on the seat whenever the rod in is in the hub .....reminds you to remove the rod before you take off.

Unfortunately I dropped my bike but at least I didn’t crash. The sliders never touched the ground but the bar ends did. They did their job and protected my bars. They got scratched but the owner of D&D took care of me and made them look new again at no cost. Now that's what I call customer service. Thanks again D&D Machine!}
