Remove the grease that seems to come stock on these drivers and replace it with some appropriate lube. They are strong but seem to have a bad habit of skipping often enough, although they have a long bearing and contact surface life.

Okay.... For 35 bucks Its not horible... But they could have done a mutch better job...
I run a 10T RHD And after 1 month It skips alot...
Alot of people regrease them... Not a smart move.. That cause's it to skip more if you use real thick grease..
So geep it clean, with LIGHT grease, and you should be set..

odyssey dropped the ball on this one, ran alright for like 4 months then the berrings were making grinding noises and like 2 weeks later the actual threading ripped out( it wasnt cross threaded) my buddy joe put a new driver on like 30 min later and thats ones still good....
pretty sure its a ACS fat claws. -

these divers are good except for one thing, the bearings inside the driver are crap. i was ridin down at metro a few weekends ago, and i was doin a ice pick grind landed it and i couldn't pedal backwards, the bearing just crumbled up. fix it the next day, i just put in 2 new bearings that i had and it worked just find after that.

Unlike most of the reviews on this i have to give it a 5/5. I had this 1pc 11t driver for 2years and it held up fine. No skipping, never had any type of engagement problems. I rode alot of trails and street with it. I had the original 3pawl design too..
I didn't have a problem till i landed a feeble awkwardly and bent my axle, it cause the 1pc driver bearings to become bent alil but it wasn't even affected much. I sold the driver to a friend who put new bearings in it and works fine.
I now have a LHD 11t odyssey cassette and has the newer 4 pawl design, i dont think i will run into problems but i'll post on here if i run into any.
P.S. Use the rubber O ring the cassette comes with, it's designed to keep dirt out dirtynorthbmx.. -

Works decent, holding up for me I like the easy swap I got rid of that little plastic O ring cause it creates too much resistance and messes with my cranks sometimes and makes them move forward in the air other than that it's decent price could be a little better, for a chromoly driver

i just got a 10 tooth and from teh start it ghost pedaled....then i loosened the nut that keeps the driver in and it was fine for a little while and now it ghosts when it wants to....seems like grinding makes it ghost pedal but then doing 3s off stairsets and stuff makes it not anymore....i really dont know what the deal is....

Great product.
I've had lots of driver problems, but this one solved it.
Wish it came in 9t though. -

I've been running mine for 6months now without a problem.
I removed all the stock grease on it and put it light lube on it, and it clicks louder and is smooth as butta


I run the 10 tooth left side drive, driver. .It has ran great, and I used to run the right side drive on my old wheel, never had a problem.. I would have to say its a real smooth driver, however I didnt give it a 5/5 because I have heard of them crapping out and not running smooth, but not for me! super good stuff
