matti ghofen Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 What sprocket sizes would you recommend for trials? My bike has 11x43 fitted, but it feels a bit too quick for me in first gear at its lowest revs... I'd like the bike to go slower when things are getting difficult. I'm a complete novice on a trials bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iltakeafive Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Hi, I run that same sprocket set up on mine, I used to have a flywheel weight which helped! Makes it harder to stall too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b40rt Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 If you can get a 10 why not try it. http://www.trialsbits.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=78_107_195&products_id=684 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matti ghofen Posted November 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 I've bought a 10t sprocket. It's so small that the chain fouls the locking tab at the hex corners of the nut. I'm going to modify the lock tab so it only folds onto the flats of the nut. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matti ghofen Posted November 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2015 Does anyone know the how tight the sprocket nut should be please? Cheers, MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
