PRO-X Clutch Baskets- Any good?
« on: March 08, 2008, 05:39:21 AM »
Anyone ever use or know of anyone that has used these and how good they are compared to some others?
Seems these are not being made much in the aftermarket in the USA. Hinson is discontiued. The PRO-X ones are made in Europe so I wonder if they come from Talon or Mitaka factories and are re-boxed?  There are some on ebay now.

You need to find out what grade of aluminum they are made from if they are 6061 or 7005 I guarantee they will last a lot longer then four weeks.

PMI Europe b.v.'s headquarters are located in the Netherlands. In Nieuw-Vennep (area Amsterdam Airport Schiphol) you can find the ProX office and warehouse, where we stock the complete ProX product line, which consists of over 3,000 part numbers. Prox Racing Parts are mainly manufactured in Japan by reputable Original Equipment Manufacturers.

You were right!

Well I live 8 miles from them, and my dads family comes from Nieuw-Vennep :|
For 15 years we organice (me, uncle and friends) a kermis cross 500metre from ProX.
Can't help it :lol: :lol: :wink:

Some people swear by Prox other Vertex or Wiseco or PC or...........H#$da, suzuki.
Its never good if you ask some one else :mrgreen: :mrgreen:


I just didn't had a good experience with Prox basket.
