onli vtec model gt front fender like dat.... more sporty.....

anyway try not to put back the thing since u took it out..... last time i also gt put but handling of bike is very bad so took it off..... jacking up the bike will spoil ur chain too... not realli worth it...

My DID X Ring still going strong after 15000km... No need any tightening...

Maintenance is required like lubing and washing..

 

I changed my X ring and Honda original spockets at $230 at Yishun SPC (but nearer to Khatib MRT leh ) .

thus saving petrol...

cal how much time it need to complete one round of turn with a small sproket.

and do the same for the big one.

 

which one is faster and need less time to complete one turn of the wheel.

 

 

small will have pick up but no top. thats the disadvantage.

 

like wat cheeteck say, who try before and can proved that it is more heavy petrol usage.

the problem is who is so consistance thru' out the bike life, and can standad ya throttle control.

icic...

i always thought larger sprocket would have better pick up...

cos when riding my bicycle, the larger the rear chainring, the easier it was to pedal...

 

sproket u referring to front or rear one?

[ooniq]

tot larger back sprocket will have better pick up like those in scrambler but will lose out in distance

where can i get AFAM spocket?

choose the largest spocket on your bicycle, climb up a slope.

after that, choose the smallest spocket, and climb again.

 

now lets try smth else.

go to the top of a slope and come down (using largest spocket)

now try that again but use the smallest spocket this time.

 

clearer to you now?

[Vtec1605198534]

actually the easiest way to find out abt spocket is to ride a mountain bike n test it urself......

 

front spocket small rear spocket big..... pick up damn easy...... but u cant pedal for speed..

front spocket small rear spocket small....wan to move off tat time super hard to pedaL.....bike like very heavy....but this setting enable u to cycle at fast speed

hope this info can help u all to understand it better....

going up slope, a larger sprocket on the rear of my bicycle will enable easier climbing...

 

down slope, a smaller sprocket on the rear will give me more speed down...

 

so larger sprocket = better pick up?

smaller sprocket = higher top speed?

 

hope i am getting it right~

pls advise...

[Guest m0nk]

i'm confused.....

[type G]

yup u got that rite

[Vtec1605198534]

anyway dun confuse lah.... best stick to front spocket 15 teeth rear spocket 45 teeth...

this setting gt pick up & can reach to 190km/h which clear the meter on our super 4....

[stylomilo]

i thought of changing to bigger rear sprocket to play pick up...

haha...

but fuel consumption would suffer...

or maybe can play wif scrams...
