That's a lot of teeth to add, you'll spend a lot of time on the rear wheel.

Apparently one less tooth on the front is similar to adding three teeth on the rear.
Still sounds too much to me, unless you're gonna do stunts with it.

thanks chaps. Already going one down on the front sprocket - ideally looking for a 14/54 combination. And yes, I'm looking for some on-demand front wheel air-time fun :)

One down and six up, you may as well take up speedway.  :lol

so I managed to find a local company that does a 52 tooth sprocket - it's a blank so now I just have to get it machined. But ... it's on its way so hopefully I'll be wheelie having fun this Sunday  :)
