Front sprocket advice.

Hi.
I've just taken my front sprocket off to replace. The one that I've taken off has on the outside of each side what I can only describe as a rubber washer. Its about 5-6mm thick. The new sprocket that I have Doesn't have this. Is this an original sprocket and aftermarket ones don't have this?
Thanks
Dan

Re: Front sprocket advice.

Aftermarket ones dont have the rubber bit, not having it isnt a problem, never had any problem with mine.

Thanks for that. I thought that was the case, but it's always reassuring to get conformation :D
You don't happen to know the torque setting for the front sprocket as well do you?

The rubbery plastic thingmyjig round the front sprocket is only to reduce noise. Most OE ones have this.

That was my first thought, but changed my mind seeing as I have a shiny new torque wrench.:cool:

Good idea Dan. That nut needs to be freaking tight. Not sure most people would do it up tight enough without a torque wrench TBH.
