What Supersprox does

Supersprox a.s. is a European motorcycle sprocket and chain manufacturer founded in 1959 in Wales, UK by Roger Maughfling and currently led by his son DJ Maughfling. The company is now registered in Celakovice, Czech Republic, with primary production in Zhytomyr, Ukraine and a production/distribution facility in Lowicz, Poland operated via Lowicz Industrial & Logistic Services Sp. z o.o. It sells globally through a direct-to-consumer e-commerce site (supersprox.com), a wholly-owned US subsidiary (Supersprox Inc., Riverside, California, est. 2007), and OEM technical partnerships with KTM, Honda HRC, Yamaha, and Husqvarna.

The company's product line centers on the patented Supersprox Stealth hybrid rear sprocket, which Supersprox invented in 1999 by combining an aluminum center with steel teeth (protected by US Patent 7481729 and EP1573234). The full portfolio spans eight named lines — Stealth (from €51.63), Aluminum (from €31.63), Racing Steel (from €13.55), Steel Edge (from €35.43), Performance Line (from €12.95), Counter Shaft (from €7.49), Racing Chain (from €0.98), and Custom (from €89.95) — covering fitments for virtually every major motorcycle brand (Honda, Yamaha, KTM, BMW, Triumph, Husqvarna, Ducati, Suzuki, Kawasaki, and many others). Proprietary manufacturing processes include Tri-Zink triple-zinc electroplating, forged stainless steel rivet technology, 7075-T6 CNC aluminum machining, SCM-435 carbon-free steel with carbon impregnation, and CAD-designed CNC laser cutting. The business model is direct-to-consumer unit hardware sales supplemented by bespoke single-unit custom manufacturing, with free shipping within Poland for orders over 220 PLN. Supersprox self-describes as the largest producer of motorcycle sprockets in Europe, with products fitted to 6 world champions in 2014 and 7 in 2015.
