...Well the new 532 sprocket turned up yesterday....





...Talon only had ONE 532 in stock and this is it. I would have liked another black one but beggars can't be choosers as they say.
Visually, not a lot of difference as you can see....

...BUT, for all you doubters out there....





...what a difference a small roller diameter discrepancy can make Shocked


..at least I've got yet another 530 sprocket spare Rolling Eyes
might swap it with the gold one on the light weight, stealth project bike Laughing

......Here's an interesting factoid....
whilst changing this wayward sprocket, I took the opportunity to weigh the rear wheel...

Dymag Carbon Rear
complete with tyre, bearings,sprocket and sprocket carrier and, of course, the rear disc weighs in at 11.78 kgs

Antera rear wheel
WITHOUT sprocket, sprocket carrier, bearings and rear disc weighs in at 13.6 kgs
Shocked

the weight saving program is going in the right direction Laughing


do you have an idea of the weight of the marchesini rims for the sb6? or if they are heavier than the anteras...

Will you paint the wheels gold to match the sprocket? It just looks cheap otherwise Laughing

Idea
Why didn't I think of that?

I was going to be stupid and paint the sprocket black...

..Or probably lazy and leave it as it is Wink
