for Mort - chains & sprockets

[don draper <donnydogood@xxxxxxxx>]

 >>> The front sprocket? the rear sprocket? or both? Can you mix and
match the front and rear?  Or are only certain combinations possible
(without replacing the chain)? <<<

    It's generally accepted from the point of chain wear as more
desirable to change the rear sprocket (it's also easier to do);
however it may require lengthening the chain.  Going down on the
front sprocket 
will allow use of the same or slightly shortened chain. There are
combinations which will result in a chain length close enough to
stock it can be adjusted out.  Many good (and some mediocre)
sprockets are available.  Rule of thumb: 'You get what you pay for!'.

                                 Have fun;
