I think D2 / BC is quite the same... price / performance / function

There's another to consider if this is your price range, APi racing by BMS motorsports. I havent tried but the 12mths 1-to-1 exchange warrantly is attractive. A few other wrkshops carries APi and selling @ same price.

To me these brands <$1.5k last abt 1-1.5yrs, better brands although more than $2-3k but last you 2-3yrs and better performance. Of cos depends how u ride.

Rather u spend more $ to save $$ for long term... :D

I'm looking at 1.5k range,so only narrow down to BC and D2... But seems like majority of the crowd are on BC...

APi i think is within ur budget too, they do 1-1 exchange within 12mths

D2 they give 12mths too but not 1-1 it's servicing instead. look for Kelvin @ AT
