I use a fliying extruder in a delta which is a bondtech bmg.... It works really well...
They are indeed expensive but they always work!
You could use this one [www.thingiverse.com] it is recommended by the dice 3d printer which is a very fast tiny printer.... Anyway, my experience with Bowden : the longer the worse... Except from they ultimaker, i've never liked bowden....
Good luck

I use the "all metal MK8" extruders for Bowden too. Just add a M6 pneumatic coupler instead of the heatbrake. Be aware, there are left and right hand versions.
I never got a kit with matching screws, so it's a bit of gambling. One bracket didn't even fit on a NEMA17, I had to widen the center hole.

I don't understand why people use Bowden with all its potential problems on a single extruder/hotend XY machine. On a Delta where mass is important, yes, but here ????
And a Bowden geared extruder using printed gears is a non sense.

I think that you could go for cheap titan ripoff (trianglelab ones have been reviewed on the forum by demondj) .... But it won't be supporting the great e3D... Anyway....

At the endi will say, you pay for what you got. going for the real deal will give you the best result in long term...

I've used BullDog XL and it is very reliable as long as you don't try to use it with flexible filaments.

The Titan handles flexible filament better than the bulldog, and if you run out of filament during a print, you can usually just feed more filament in and get back to printing. With the BullDog you have to take the hot-end off to take out the stub of filament that's left in the hot-end- probably not an issue with a Bowden set-up.

I have very good results using Bowden extruders with printed gears. Specifically, the variant of this design [www.thingiverse.com] with the PTFE liner and these gears [www.thingiverse.com]. Works great when printing 1.75mm PLA.

I have received cloned Titan too... Terrible. Machined tooth profile is even not on the path of the filament...

That's what I had on my genuine Titan, too. Turns out, the plastic gear wasn't pressed deep enough on the output axis, so the gear pushed the arm lever out of the filament path. I could adjust it with some careful applied force. ( I used the small hammer )

Get a direct drive...
In all seriousness the weight of a pancake stepper and a plastic direct drive extruder is nothing to worry about.

For info, I'm just in the process of replacing my 5 off E3D Titans with 5 off Bondtech BMGs. If you want to know why and/or you are serious about wanting to print multi colours or multi filaments, take a look at my blog (linked in sig). HTH
Edit. When you are buying 5 extruders, getting the wrong ones to start with can be a very expensive mistake (as I found out to my cost).
