Title: Two up on the rear and I have a new bike! Post by: speedknot on May 27, 2011, 03:05:22 PM I just picked my bike up today from the shop and I am totally blown away by the rear sprocket mod. There is a huge difference in the drive-ability from the 41T to the 43T. No more low rpm chug, first gear is more usable now and it launches off the line much quicker now. I did loose a bit of top end but I'm not breaking any land speed records where I live.
I ended up putting the Supersprox rear sprocket on despite the yellow anodizing that I wasnt to crazy about. The sprocket looks pretty good and doesn't clash too much with the rest of the bike. I wanted to get the Supersprox in black but they seem to be having a bit of a supply problem with them. Title: Re: Two up on the rear and I have a new bike!

You have to lengthen the chain for the rear sprocket? Title: Re: Two up on the rear and I have a new bike! Post by: speedknot on May 27, 2011, 06:02:35 PM Yeah, its the 750. I bought the 110 length chain. A few links had to be removed from the 110. I believe stock was 104? The bike should have been shipped from the factory with the 43T rear. Much better now.

Post by: ManaloEA on June 09, 2011, 03:40:17 PM I can see why you would have wanted the black... but the color matches the chain, and is rather distinctive.
