New sprockets.

Postby greeny » Fri Jun 30, 2006 11:10 pm

Got some new sprockets today.
Got them through Chain Gang. Great service. Ordered Monday afternoon and delivered Friday morning.
Gotta be happy with that.

You might notice I went up a couple of teeth on the rear.

Obviously a man that is going to practice some low speed wheelies. :) If you are going to run a dish plate sprocket might as well whack on a 12 bar and cage as well(if haven't already?) :wink: .

Yes.
Yes I am.
Think top speed in 6th is still over 160.

Could have.
I Know guys who run a 60 and theres even a couple of guys in the states that run bigger than that.

55 is a good size for the bike and still lets you ride it on the street.
could have gone like this though
