Exploring the Evolution: The Rise of Aluminum Motorcycle Sprockets
The Revolutionary Journey of Aluminum Motorcycle Sprockets: From Concept to Industry Standard
1950-1960s: The Birth of Aluminum Sprockets
Chuck Trantham, a visionary flat track racer and skilled machinist, revolutionized the industry by pioneering the use of aluminum for sprockets, launching C.T. Alloy Products in 1950 as the first U.S. company to manufacture aluminum sprockets.
1960-1970s: Building a Legacy
Chuck's stepson, Doug, deeply influenced by Chuck's passion for motorcycles and racing, joined the family business, marking a new era of expansion and innovation. This period saw Doug's rise in the racing world and his significant contributions to the company's growth and product development.
1980-1990s: Expansion and Innovation
Under Doug's leadership, REBEL GEARS became synonymous with quality and innovation, extending its reach with an Eastern distribution and manufacturing facility. Sponsorships with top off-road racers underscored the brand's dominance and commitment to excellence.

Luke Bodwell 2020-12-10 I have a 93 FJ1200 that all came with a 16 inch rear rim. No good tires can be had for 16 inch rims. So I found a 17 inch one that looks like the FJ from a 1989 GSXR 750. The sprocket was not gong to work at all with my bike (gearing would be way to low) and there were none for sale that would.
I called Rebel Gears thinking, what the heck, it was 0 problems. 3 min on the phone only to verify dimensions so the sprocket would fit. Price was less then I expected for a custom made sprocket.
Fast shipping and very friendly customer service. Something you just do not see with this world of click and ship.
Thank you for all your help! 
Paul Needham 2020-07-30 outstanding customer service very knowledgeable and american made 
keith johnson 2018-09-10 Stopped by today and met the fellows at rebel gears, explaining my issue they started doing math and handed me the sprocket to make my request happen.
