ashbabble Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 I'm getting good info out of this forum - keep it up! Next doubless silly question - where do I get chain and sprocket kits from? My prefered source is Ebay for most things these days but I can only find one vendor doing actual kits, there are a few others doing back / front sprox and possibly chains. To my mind, when one is knackered they are all knackered so you may as well get it all in one kit. I was suprised to find next to nowt in the back of TMX. I know its a minority sport and there isn't much about but there must be a supplier somewhere that you all use surely. Still cannot source a manual for my Beta techno 1999, anyone got a copy? ta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seandellear Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 I have never seen a chain and sprocket "kit"! I have only been around a year! But I would guess at the lack of them being that people have individual preferences to chain manufacturers. Some like iris (not many I know! lol), some like renthal or DID! People also run different to one another so therefore I bet there would have to be loads of different combinations of kits! I would say get your sprockets straight from talon and then buy your prefered chain! hope this helps! Cheers Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azzy Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 Hi Ashbabble i find Talon a good source for chains and sprockets also spokes and such. As for a manual for your Beta i dont think one was produced. The only trials bike I got a manual with was my 05 Montesa 4 rt. and that was about an inch thick!!

portman Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 I have always had good service from BVM for all my parts. Knowledgeable, helpful and friendly staff and their postal service is invariably very speedy. And I don't have any links with them!

Cheers No, you're right, they don't seem to do actual kits, probably for the reasons you said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 Hiya, You could try emailing Beta in Italy for a copy of the manual, have a search in the Beta forums, there is a specific address for somebody who can deal with them specifically, and you should be able to either get a pdf version or a hard copy if one is not available for free.
