Title: Chains
Post by: Grande huevos on July 24, 2017, 11:39:03 AM
Curious what kinda of chain people recommend. I have a 363 and I ride XC and hit the sand couple times a year. I previously ran the renthal z ring chain and it's been awesome, the only issue is it's thicker then other chains so you can't run a case saver with a 15T front sprocket and that's what I would like to do..


Also what are you guys running for sprockets? The only 15T I've been able to find is a sun star

Just straight steel sprockets front and rear and a DID ATV x-ring. Mine has held up great so far on my 350

This is the same exact setup I use myself.

Why not go down in the rear? As for chain I ran that setup even on my puma

Far as the case saver goes, I would get the UPP and a dremel and carve it out to fit. I did it in a few spots on mine
