【DRC】Chain roller Review
You have to shave quite a bit to get it in.
The OEM KLX125 and D-Tra 125 are so badly made that it is standard practice to replace them with these, but even in S size, the outer diameter is one size larger than the OEM and interferes with the rear suspension link, so it was necessary to shave about 5mm off the inside edge.
I wondered how smoothly it would turn after the replacement, but the feeling is almost the same whether I push and pull or run.
The larger outside diameter makes the chain a little taut, so adjustments are necessary.

I like the Bearing.
[How is it used?
I was washing my car after Race and it was run out of the house, so I bought it.I could have bought OEM, but I chose this DRC Chain roller, which was in immediate delivery.
The OEM chain roller is just a rubber with a steel spacer, but this one has a bearing, a hard material like DURACON, and a variety of colors, which I recommend. I wonder why OEMs don't have Bearing in their rotary products?

Was the installation difficult?
It is not particularly difficult.
How was your experience with it?
It is still a good point that Bearing is firmly attached to both SIDE.
It's nice to be in One Point's colors again.
[Included Parts:were they on?
Not particularly
[Was there anything that disappointed you?
None in particular. I'm a Repeat buyer because I know it's quite durable.

Lock nut is a must because it tends to loosen easily~. Also, measure the OEM size before you buy. If you drop it, it is not a good idea to buy it anyway.

Very well built and highly durable
When we increased the swing arm angle of SR400, the chain came in contact with the frame and the change shaft, so we used this product to avoid this problem. I cut a 4mm thick aluminum plate to make a bracket as shown in the picture, and attached this product.
Before I installed this Roller, I had installed my own urethane wheel from Home center, but it was narrow and its rotation and trajectory were not stable, so I had various problems. It takes a lot of time and money to make a roller that is just right for me.
The product itself is very well built and turns quietly due to the quality of the resin.
The point of particular interest is the bearing used. The bearing is made of high-grade stainless steel bearing, and as you can see in the picture, the inner ring is slightly protruding, which makes the bearing very easy to work with.
As for dustproofing, it is a non-contact Gold Shield type, so its dustproofing performance is inferior to the contact seal type, but I have used it for about two years and have not experienced any particular problems.
Anyway, I bought it and used it and was extremely happy with it. I strongly recommend it to anyone who is not sure about buying it.

They do their job properly.
D Tracker 125, with a Chain slider that does not rotate.
I replaced this. It feels good to rotate smoothly.

Lock nut is essential because it tends to loosen easily.
