Chain and sprocket kits aren't the only thing DDC
sells; they also offer products from many other
top-quality manufacturers, including Trail Tech,
Tugger, Bullet Proof Designs, and Mojo Motor-
sport, along with several others. For more info,

While in the process of freshening up the drive-
train, we reached out to Issac at TM Designworks
to see what's new for chain guides and protec-
on for our KTM. Isaac recommended their "FX
Slide n Guide Kit". This kit includes TM's Baja
front chain slider, designed with addi onal ma-
terial to increase performance and durability; a lower
"Powerlip" roller or frame pad with sound-damping
pads to cushion the slider and help reduce chain-slap
noise; and their "FX" rear chain guide, which features a
streamlined lower profile with added upper material to
reinforce moun ng tabs and large chamfered outside
leading and bo om edges for maximum rock deflec-
on.
We've been running TM Designworks guides for many
years with fantas c success. We like how their products
flex, return to center, and most importantly, we've yet
to see one break. TM Designworks FX Slide n Guide Kit.
