Bigmac.... as long as you keep to the same format - ie: 630 or 530 ..etc.

If you're replacing an old knackered sprox with a new one, then there may be rapid wear on the new sprox, as the cahin set wears/stretches with use :shock:

Guys, I think BigMac is concerned about the length of the 630 chain. That is, will the 33 sprocket with 2 less teeth still fit in the adjustment range of the usual 92 link chain? Or, will he have to remove a link? I not sure of the answer I think it both sprocket would serve the one chain length.... Could be wrong!

I have fitted z900A4 rear sprox to a Z1 ie a smaller rear to lower revs for better cruising etc without having to remove a link, unless the chain is very worn and stretched.
