chain and sprocket product recommendations
#11
I went for these:
Renthal Front Sprocket 315A-525 - 16 Teeth £20.29
Stealth Supersprox Sprocket - 44 Teeth £52.24
Renthal R4 SRS 525 Pitch Drive Chain - 108 links £88.23
How sweet is that setup? :-) Was going to change the gearing ratios with the sprockets however, as I've been targeted by the law lately, I decided against it lol as it'll mean recalibrating the speedo. I also use dry lube, don't want crud all over the chain as it looks so sweet... when it's bad weather like lately, I just use a toothbrush, spray some GUNK on it, get the crap off, then apply dry lube, job done. It's still looking good 3k miles in. Haven't had to adjust at all...
Not the best picture as it was at night, but you get the idea:

Next question... What lube do you use (on an x ring chain)?
I have previously used a WD40 chain lube which was terrible and am currently looking at the Muc-off dry PTFE.... I see castrol and motul do lubes for o and x ring chains, any good?
Thanks for any response

I use the pro honda lube and its great, keeps everything clean with no fling. If you can find the dupunt multi-purpose lube in a can thats good stuff too.
