if ya ride tight woods and hills...give a 14 tooth front sprocket a try

[exman]

pappy seams like in the really tight sections I am caught inbetween 1/2 gear, will 14th help this

[Pappy]

yup...the 14 tooth allows me to run a gear higher..yet still lets the quad pull out if a tight section without shifting. it will affect top end speed a lil but not a ton
