Title: Rear sprocket question for 530 chain
Post by: rdsarefun on July 07, 2025, 08:50:48 AM
Just picked up a 74 RD350 and going thru it.  I am looking at sprockets and I cant seem to find a 40 tooth rear, only 39 tooth.  I bought a new DID non o-ring chain (530- 92 link) and am looking at new 15 tooth front sprockets, as mentioned earlier the only 40 tooth I could find is for an RZ. All the different sites I have found have 15/39 tooth combos.  Will the 40 tooth RZ fit or am I overthinking this and should just buy the 39 tooth?  Thanks in advance.

one tooth on the rear makes marginal difference, the 39's that are commercially available are much cheaper, are steel and will last longer.
