    Hi Guys,

    I currently have dura ace jockey wheels… I’m keen to change only the jockey wheels, not the whole pulley, for ceramic bearings ones. however  I’m not willing to spend 250 quid on the ceramicspeed ones.. I also don~t want to pay 45 euro for a a pair of jockey wheels, and when they arrive they have the same resistance as the dura ace ones.

    Does anyone know any cheap version of the ceramic bearings that is better than Dura Ace and it won’t negative my bank account?

     

    Thanks.

    Yes I have used, friction is very low and substantially less than any branded ones. Re your cage, yes you are right, try the 13t first (at the bottom position)

    @MariaMartinez, Have you used them? Do they have less resistence than the dura ace ones? Cause I’ve seen some video of jockey wheels like these that has as much resistence as the dura ace ones… just wondering.. I don’t want them for looks but for performance.

    Also, I’m not entirely sure my short cage dura ace derailleur will accomodate the 13/15 T jockey wheels.
