Why DID?

Sprockets are just sprockets, no O rings on them at all. Get steel ones, preferably JT brand ones.
As for chain, you want 525 chain, 108 links. Personally I think X ring is gimmick and recommend a heavy duty O ring chain.

It works out to about £20 for the Sprockets, based on the list price for the Chain (the chains about £86 on wemoto).

I'm with you on the O ring and X ring being a gimmick, both do the same job wear at a similar rate.

That set would work, also you'll need the washer and probably the nut depending on how badly corroded they are.

VX is not that good. Spend a bit more and get VM or ZVM if you do miles.

I'm going to check the new I've got as I can think what the chain is
