530 stock, yes planning on replacing it. stock sprockets are 16 f 43r. just want better acceleration, and it wont compromise the top speed much, if at all. 2/20/2007 11:11:48 PM |

oh it will bring ur top speed down. but not my much.
im actually going 1 down 2or3 up on the rear as well. 520 conversion tho

http://www.sumofallparts.net has been the cheapest i've found for sprockets. for you they have combos chain/sprocket for really good prices.

thats a 929 15/45 520 chain conversion. that'd be a nice little setup. hopefully i'll be ordering a conversion like that for my bike.

taking the front sprocket requires quite a bit of torque. Taking the chain off should be easy as long as you have a change breaker. You'll have to revet the master link when putting the new chain on too, or you can use those clip-on stuff so its not permanently on.
^actually, not bad prices. Might have to get a new set for the f2...

remember 520's stretch a lot more. ull have do adjust more. if this deal on ebay falls through im going 530 or 525 (if they make 525) 50 tooth in the back or something.
jeff u want to go half and half on a chain breaker? they run like 100 bucks. 2/21/2007 4:18:14 AM |

ok dont listen to them fools. go to http://www.sprocketspecialists.com or http://www.vortexracing.com. i've gotten sprockets from both of them before and they are all top quality. let's just say each of my sprockets outlasted each of my bikes so far 2/21/2007 7:30:17 AM |

thanks guys, sumofallparts.net seems to have some pretty good deals, think I am going to order from them. I am sticking with a 530 chain though. 2/21/2007 9:34:51 AM |

just make sure they are steel and not aluminum if you want to get any kind of life out of them 2/21/2007 9:56:36 AM |
snakeyes3460 Starting Lineup 52 Posts user info edit post |
aluminum is a pretty soft metal..... i think though if you can keep the chain clean, lubed, and adjusted it can last for a respectable amount of time. good luck anyways 2/21/2007 10:37:17 AM |

as far as the 520 chains sumofallparts uses that x type chain with the conversions which i've heard have a higher tensile strength.....then again this has all came from others experience and not my own. 2/21/2007 11:03:29 AM |

just bought a stock 530 RK chain/votex sprocket set for 139.35 on this site http://www.parts411.com
I was gonna get it from bikebandit as I just bought new steel lines and race pads, but I just saved 10 bucks... even though I just spent 300 right now in the middle of class... :p 2/22/2007 11:48:30 AM |

good deal... i wouldnt have bought it because of the way he worded the aution though. first saying there was a scratch and to look at it in the pictures, then saying everything was new? Hope it works out for ya! 2/23/2007 9:29:04 AM |
