Advice on some parts Im after please
 

I want to get the following for the bike to either tidy it up a bit;

Chain and sprockets
Sprocket nuts
Both hub nuts for the rear wheel.

Can anyone recomend any please?

I idealy would like a black sprocket carrier, gold chain and sprockets, and some nuts that wont corrode like steel!

Cheers

Bill

Buy a good quality brand name chain & sprockets and you wont have any problems, as for the sprocket nut, either use A4 S/S or if your flush tittanium.

Personaly I have a great fear of using alli nuts and bolts on a bike - period!

I would suggest Tittanium nuts for the rear wheel, you can get them from Tecmoto and allthough not cheap, there probably the best option,

Pro bolts/tasy nouts do them as well.

Good Luck.

Cheers for the reply
Should sprocket nuts be wire locked? Mine are but I havnt seen it done on any other road ones!

Try Nelly of Cornerspeed for stainless steel nuts.

Nelly's stainless wheel nuts are superb.Highly recommended.

I have my sprocket nuts lock wired but only coz it looks nice and I have the tool to do it with along with S/S wire, for normal use its not necessary.

Does Nelly do the correct size (46mm) rear wheel nut either in S/S or Ti?

Stainless, bi-hexagonal, very Gucci!!!!!
Won't fit my ST4S tho......:(

Yes,stainless steel.Two rear and one front in bi-hex.Lovely pieces of kit and don't mark up/corrode like ally ones.

Can anyone please tell me where on earth I can buy the sockets I need to remove the rear wheel and the sprocket carrier?
Largest ive found anywhere so far is only a 32mm!
Am I right in saying i need a 41mm and a 46mm?

Cheers Joel

These are 3/4" drive so you will probably need a 1/2" to 3/4" adapter

Billy - try Harry (HTB) for your sockets, he has some sets made up and may have some left. Top quality.

Or Halfords or your local Discount Motor Spares shop. There are a couple of inch sockets that do the job at low prices.

If you get them from a tool shop you might need to get the shoulder turned off them so they sit right onto the nut.

Try to find a very cheap tool shop/store.
I got my sockets from a trade show stand, the type that sells all sorts of tools chaep, there with 3/4 drive and cost me £5 each and a 1/2 to 3/4 adaptor cost me £4. I had the Chaps at work skim the sockets so that they fittes straight on the socket, ie removed the bevel from inside the socket.
