Fuck Raketa.
Many talk about it, few have managed to get one.
It looks pretty, that’s my thought.
Stiff is a good thing right?
If you got it through a reseller then great. Many people have had issues with dealing directly with them.
I had one on my daily bike and the quality is very good; there is almost no wear and tear.
I looked into whether there would be diamondring’s this year. They claimed there would be production, but prices were going to be extraordinary.
Their website doesn’t seem to get updated frequently either.
That said, given the chance, I’d own one
I like their chainrings a lot. Cogs are super nice as well. They can be slow, but I’ve never had any issues the 3 times I’ve ordered from them. The lack of communication isn’t really an issue for me. Hell, we used to have to mail a check to a physical address and then wait with no communication. You’ll survive
From what I’ve read and seen first hand, they make good parts.
From what I’ve seen and heard first hand, they take about 12-25 years to actually deliver a part ordered and communication is non existent
There are plenty of brands that make great parts that don’t take years to deliver and communicate well if there are questions, so I’d never order anything raketa alone for that reason
I have one. Used it for a good while when running 49×17. Looks great. Feels great.
