Tell me more about the sprockets & chain combo...
What do you need for the order?

The Red-Bus needs a new set.

Try a different combo...
This really change the dynamic of the bike.

I went from a 17 / 40 combo to a 16 / 40 combo... pretty decent wheelie increase.
Going to a 16 / 42... anticipating lots more wheelie-ability.
However, the top-end will suffer.
You notice a big increase over going one tooth down on the front sprocket? My bike is 16/40 stock and I'm about to break down and go 15/40 when I put some new tires on. Totally worth it, right?
