Re: Chain and sprocket DID520VM
You'll have to use 520 pitch sprockets to suit the chain. As for the sprocket size, it depends on what type of riding you do I guess.

Re: Chain and sprocket DID520VM
That might be 525 pitch, as that's what's standard.

Re: Chain and sprocket DID520VM
It's the recorded air mail delivery to Sweden that costs - and they are Hard anodised ally race sprockets - if you want cheap steel road sprockets sent via boat no problem - a lot cheaper - approx 50%.
Go off and get a delivered quote for the 3 x steel sprockets delivered via Air mail and come back to me.
Its always best and sensible to compare like with like.....

Re: Chain and sprocket DID520VM
It's right, you get what you pay for, Race spec stuff costs money. On the positive side it should last longer
