Right now im running stock gears (15/43). Im looking to go plus 2 in the rear, will the stock chain still work, i was thinking it would but wanna make sure.

What is a good brand sprocket and place to purchase them?

 

How old are your chain and sprockets?

Is it a 530 or 520 set?

If there ready for replacement then upgrade to a 520 set and buy everthing at one time.

I picked up my complete 520 set for $120.00.

SIRR1

 

was the change a noticable difference?

 

I went +2 on the rear last year and noticed a small difference. The ****ty aluminum sprocket failed on me though 7 months later! I'm buying only steel sprockets from now on. I decided to go to a +3 rear sprocket for this year.

 

... so did you guys stick with the same length chain???

 

im yet to decide, leaning towards buying the kit that comes with both sprockets plus chain

 

I have the stock 530 chain but with +2 in the rear (15/45). Both sprockets are 530 steel. I like difference over stock and I wouldn't personally go higher in the rear without a speedo-healer.

 

got other issues now.

Old lady puleed out in front of me. I walked away with out a damn scratch, not the bike though.

 

Oh nooooooo!!!!!!!!!!! That's ****ty man, sorry to hear it! Glad you're alright though! Bikes are replaceable, we're not.

 

Oh man, that really sucks. Looking at the bike, it's hard to imagine you walked away without any injuries. Very fortunate I'd say. Have you had a chance to look it over and determine if it's repairable ? Did she have insurance ?
