    What's the score with this size of Chain & Sprox?


    Advantages and disadvantages over the stock size which is 530 I believe?



    Ta in advance! :p

    + less rotational mass so more power available to accelerate
    - potentially less mileage as they may wear/stretch out quicker

    +1 on above,def wear quicker,more of a modification you would do to a race bike where parts are sacrificial.
