Summers Bros are better than Gear One, but I'll throw another into the mix.
Turner Cycle Axles. I've run Summers Bros before and have now switched to Turner Cycles...much better and stronger when you factor in the CVs... give 'em a call and see what they can do for you...

I agree with Darryl89. We had Summer Bros on our RZR 900 with HCR suspension, and we broke CV's every race. We even bent the "Un-Bendable" axles. We switched to Turner and no problems yet.

Default Re: gear one axles Vrs summer bros

We love the Summers axles, great to deal with and close enough to drive and pick up for us.. I have recently serviced an awesome set of the type 1/ rhino outboard hubs and they are killer to say the least but not sure exactly what your'e plans were on car usage and upkeep, i guess everyones a little different on theyre equipment
