What sprocket is best for top speed?
For more top end and faster top speed, use a large countershaft/front sprocket or smaller rear sprocket. This creates a taller gearing ratio that’s best for high speed situations without many tight turns like wide open desert racing.
How do you match a chain and sprocket?
If You Have The Sprocket and Need The Chain Size To measure the chain size, if you have just the sprocket, use calipers to measure between the teeth. Measure from center to center of where the chain roller would set between the teeth that will give you the pitch.
What is the difference between a 530 and 520 chain?
A 530 chain on a 520 sprocket will work just fine, a 532 will not. The differance between a 520 and 530 is the width, the roller diamiter and pitch are the same.
Do smaller sprockets go faster?
Substituting a larger front or smaller rear sprocket lowers the ratio (sometimes called “taller” gearing), resulting in more speed for a given engine rpm. Likewise, a smaller front or larger rear sprocket gives less speed for a given rpm (“shorter” gearing).
Can you change the size of a sprocket on a chain?
Before you change sprocket size. Go up in sprocket size too much. You will need a longer chain or, Go down in sprocket size too much. You will need a shorter chain So, if you’re plum out of room. In the chain adjustment slots. Or in doubt how much room you have. It’s best to….
How many teeth driven sprocket?
The driven sprocket is found as follows: No. Teeth Driven Sprocket = 18 x 1150 (Ratio) = 68.99 or 69 Teeth 300 Since 69 teeth is not a stock size we select 70 teeth. The chain length is calculated and is 142 pitches.
How many diameters is a 30 roller chain sprocket?

What type of sprocket should I get for my bike?
