| Andyb, I don't really understand that matchstick analogy - it doesn't seem to really make sense.
I think I'll stick to the advice from Sigma, Cornerspeed and Shazaam and run a 525 on my 996. Especially seeing as my gearing is 14/39 and not the 15/36 standard gearing, I weigh 94kg's and the front wheel seems to come up regularly. For the sake of a few grams, and none of us are Rossi here, I'd rather have the piece of mind that I've got a nice strong chain on the bike. |
