New Vortex Sprockets 15T 48T 530

[SovietRobot]

For sale I have two Vortex sprockets, brand new never used
Front sprocket 15T(-1) nickel plated steel 530 pitch
Rear sprocket 48T(+2) CAT5 aluminum red 530 pitch
I am selling these because I want to do a 520 conversion.

$80 + shipping for both. I payed a little over $100

If you can sell it separately, i would like to buy just the front sprocket.

You can't return them?

I bought them over 3 months ago from two separate websites, neither of which I want to buy new products from(not an issue with the websites)
I just don't want to go through the hassle of trying to return them.

Are you in Turkey? Shipping would be pretty expensive. USPS is claiming $13 on one page and $23 on another.

Yes i am in Turkey.
It wont`t cost more than $13 i think.
There is an other option like $8.45 for 10 ounce.

They go for around $30 new, so $25+shipping
It's brand new and I'm not looking to lose too much money.

How about $35 including shipping?

Quick question on this conversion

My understanding is the stock chain is a 530 and I dont care so much about the extra weight. Will these sprockets work with the stock chain or would I need to purchase a new chain because of the differnt $# of teeth.

It will work with the same chain.

It'll work with the stock chain, which is 530.
A few people on the forum have said the stock chain works well for -1/+2, which is what these sprockets are.

My intention was to use these with my stock chain, but since my chain is so old I want to buy another one, but I figured if I'm buying a chain I might as well do a 520 conversion.

You have a PM sir :thumbup:

What are the advantages of 520 chain when compared with standart 530?

 

[someone08]

the 520 chain is sooooooo much lighter, but they arent as strong as the 530. im not saying that the 520 isnt strong enough, im saying it isnt as strong.

H20Boy.. can you please us know how this mod works out for you. I'd be interested to know about the install & how you like the change in gearing.

Well, you can wait for these to get to me in the mail, install it, drive it enough to form an opinion and then write about it here....

OR... you can type "Sprocket" into the search function and read a whole lot of opinions about it right now...... :thumbup:
