they are a bit harder to install than FRPP gears but they will work just fine if you have a good mech.

the gears are made a little different.

I believe it's the cut of the gear.

motive gears whine because they're harder for mechanics to install, not because of the quality of the gears themselves. if the gears whine after they've been installed, then you shouldn't pay the mech because he did a shitty job. i've got Motives, and they don't whine at all...
