"Chain worn but not excessively" said the advisory on the MOT.

"Don't worry" said the seller. "Its had new sprockets, so its just the chain."
It may well have had a rear sprocket, but this front sprocket has teeth that Jaws would be proud of!
Wonder how close they are to bending over and throwing the chain off??
(new sprocket on top, just in case anyone wasn't paying attention)

Waste of time and money just fitting a new chain - needs the full set or they all wear fast & uneven :??
