"Noisy gear" drive

Post by SA351GT » Sun 24 Oct 2010, 17:17

What are the advantages of using a "gear drive" instead of a normal timing chain set up? (Apart from the cool sound)

Have used the gears on two projects, works like a charm, although some people find the noisyness a bit annoying:-) different strokes i guess
