Steel or aluminium sprockets?
 
I'm looking at a new chain and sprockets for the XT. The chain I have chosen is

http://www.intobikes.co.uk/products/...520_R3-2_Chain

Would I be better with:

FRONT

http://www.intobikes.co.uk/products/...aha_XT600_2002

or

http://www.intobikes.co.uk/products/...latest&sd=DESC

REAR

http://www.intobikes.co.uk/products/...aha_XT600_2002

or

http://www.intobikes.co.uk/products/...latest&sd=DESC

I will always replace chain and sprockets at the same time, so as long as the sprocket outlives the chain I'm happy.

Renthal chain, stick with Renthal sprockets, or doesn't it matter?

Or should I spend a bit more money and get DID or Tsubaki?

Thanks

I had that Renthal rear, it was not as long lasting as steel.

B&C EXPRESS are usually the easiest and good value - bike finder site!

I always go with steel sprockets now, had a couple of the Renthal alloy sprockets and they never lasted long

I like these. Alloy carrier, steel teeth, look bling.
