Chain and sprockets?

**Stylo** · 23rd July 2013, 18:42

Been out of the loop for a while and getting back on track very soon but I need to replace my chain and sprockets for my KX500 E16 . Would rather go with steel sprockets for longevity and I'm not scared about spending a few extra $ for decent product.

Advice /comments on suitable brands and what to avoid - pitfalls etc with current offerings ? .

Thinking of going Renthal sprockets and DID 520 O drive chain.

Cheers :-)

id go with renthal chain wheels n chain too, plenty of torque on a monster like that eh, how long have you owned it?

Supersprox steel sprockets will outlast Renthals, which are alloy, except for the $200 twinring.

I like the RK 520EXW xring chain personally. That and the supersprox stealth are what im currently running.

duno abt sprockets, but ive raped fuckery out of did chain and it takes some killing. So buy that.

I would use a DID over a Renthall chain. X- ring chains have superseded the o-rings as they apparently have less friction but some how I don't see that as an issue in your case.
