rransome Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 Hi there i have a 2006 280 pro which is a little toofast when riding just on tickover. Can you tell me is the standard front sprocket 11t and if i put the 10t sprocket on that came with the bike do i have to remove a chain link or adjust the back wheel.

Some riders use the aftermarket snail adjusters as they give a wider range of axle pull-back and, depending on chain/sprocket condition, can compensate for the smaller countershaft sprocket. I think you'll find the 10T sprocket will help you a lot. Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterb Posted May 6, 2008 Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 Hi Russell, As Jon says, the bike works well with a 10T. From new, the standard length chain is fine with a 10T for about 20 trials or so then you can either fit the larger snail cams or take out 3 links and fit in a "half" link, which is 2 links long. Bye, PeterB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
