Choho chain kit?

[Luke12345]

Hello every one

Can anyone let me know on your experiences who the brand Choho I ordered the chain and sprocket kit off eBay which was advertised as a different name,

Is it a good brand or will I have problems with it

Any advice much appreciated

Thanks

who makes those I haven't heard of them before

[Luke12345]

I’m not sure they were advertised as a different name on eBay

I don’t want to fit it and hope that’s why I wanted to know if anyone knows anything about them

[skyrider]

they sound a bit of an unknown make do you not fancy fitting a DID chain

I have never heard of this make before, but hey if they look ok every manufacturer/company has to start somewhere

The snag with eBay is that there is a lot of aftermarket junk sold on there. The number of people I've seen who bought timing kits for car engines, then spent hours fitting them and six months later it's rattling again.

Personally I'd buy over the counter from a local supplier if at all possible. Otherwise use a reputable supplier that does delivery.

If it was advertised as a known brand and you've received an unknown make then send it back. Chances are it's come from some unknown far east factory.

if that's the case I wouldn't touch them with a steralised barge pole

what bike is it you have

[Luke12345]

I have a Yamaha YBR 2010

I’m new to bikes so not sure of which brands are best

Is DID top of the range ?

[skyrider]

yes the DID chain is one of the best and the jt sprockets, you wont go far wrong

[Luke12345]

I’ll get hold of a kit of that brand not worth the hassle

Thanks all for your help

[skyrider]

the DID chain and jt sprocket kit advertised on fleabay £32 for the ybr

[Luke12345]

Do you think it’s worth getting one on eBay or from a shop / garage ?

[skyrider]

if you can get them from a bike shop near you go for it

[skyrider]

but as said before the other make if it is from the far east could be made of chocolate, stick with reputable makes

I bought a CZ chain for the ER5 . No complaints so far . This is made by the same company that used to make CZ Motorcycles .

The name Choho sort of gives it away a bit as to where it was made. My personal preference when it come to safety critical Items on a bike, like brakes and drive, is to go with well known proven brands.

I did look into Choho chains a while back, M&P are the main suppliers. They are Chinese (no surprise) and there are several stories of them snapping, it seems the steel they're made of is just too brittle. Highly unrecommended!
