Gold side plates just look $hite...

lots of people on here have given you their opinion on your chain and sprocket. The overall opinion is "its shagged, change it"

You dont seem to want to take the comments on board, so why keep asking or trying to make out that your chain isnt as bad as it looks?

If you dont want to spend your money on something important for the sake of saving a few bob then fine. But your risk of an accident is significantly higher. It will be on your conscience not mine.

Soooo what will you do about your chain and sprockets? Given most people (all people?) have said change them as a complete set (chain AND sprockets - thats both - at the same time)?

Well to be fair I did walk up to the bloke that looks after my bike and said that I needed one of those things people wear round their necks and 2 of those circular saw blade round thingys. The bikes now got a chavtastic gold plated chain which does give me the incentive to clean it.



Oh no, I said the word clean in a reply to one of Yorkie Chris'es posts.
