So as my 2000 curvy was making some weird noise from the front sprocket and coupled with the chain being knackered at the weekend it was sprocket change time.

I had a feeling it was pretty shot but didn`t expect this:

Talk about fubard, the replacement was a Renthal 14 tooth and I reckon they were the same size (the one in the pic isn`t it) so no real noticeable improvement, but I can`t help thinking the chain could and would have come off at any time and it doesn`t bear thinking about.

Anyhows new front and rear sprockets and a nice new gold did xring chain and all is well.
