    Z1 Alternative in Canada?

    So I just went through checking out a 530 conversion kit for my 1100E from Z1. Price was decent, $154 for two sprockets and an X-ring chain. Then I got to shipping. They quoted $58 to ship a chain and two sprockets to Canada by USPS. That takes a good deal and makes it brutal.

    Any Canadian alternatives that don't add 38% to the cost just to mail a small parcel?

          Good point. I have looked at them for other stuff but not this. They don't have a conversion kit but I puzzled out the correct sprocket numbers and chain is chain. Total cost from them is $190 but that is shipped and in Canadian $$$ so it isn't much more than Z1 before shipping. Thanks for the reminder.

          Does anyone know if I need the 1.5mm or 6mm washer as well?

            I haven't used them, and I don't know if they sell chains and sprockets, but they're in Canada and I've seen recommendations for them before: http://www.siriusconinc.com/
