Last Sundays ride brought drive chain issues on the Yelli which ended with a bent mech hanger and derailleur. I thought it was a stick but having a closer look noticed my newish Jockey wheels. I caught the wear earlier on the Ghost as back pedaling became stiff but didn't notice on the Yelli. With out question the 10 speed clutch increases wear on the jockey wheels. Note I wipe clean my drive chain after each ride.

that's what you get from buying goods in plastic baggies from dodgy looking blokes in a pub

Agree, clutch mechs put a further strain on the drive. I had a set of these wheels on my old 1x9 HT. Hardly any wear after several hundreds of miles. I tend to avoid slop riding though.
