[QUOTE="Liamfm, post: 1392645, member: 119672"] First of all thanks. I got my bike out for the first real ride this weekend and had a blast. We did about 30 miles - all of it was fun! The bike caused no problems at all and performed very well. I have 2 issues I'd like to correct, but money is starting to run out and I want to do the most important first... My chain and sprockets are BADLY worn. I also noticed that there were a few areas where I could have used a lower gear, so I'm thinking about going to a 13/50 sprocket (I'm 230lbs, so it take a bit more to get me up the hill). Second, my rear wheel isn't true. I have intentions of taking it to get fixed, or replaced, but it's not like I can't ride it, it's just not perfect. The brake feels fine, and I think the sprocket is true (or damn close), it's just got some really worn teeth. My question is, if I put a new sprocket and chain set on should I expect them to be worn abnormally by the wheel? I'd like to replace the chain/sprocket first, but don't want to ruin them if I should really replace/fix the wheel first. As for a chain/sprocket set I'm thinking about the Primary Gear steel with the gold x-ring chain. I'm just a woods rider, nothing crazy, and I don't want to spend huge money on it. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
