I have many thousands of miles on my sprocket, and it still looks brand new, how old and how many miles are on that sprocket in the picture???

Also what size motor are you using?

Wow I hope you got a lot of miles out of that sprocket.

The right size depends on your engine. And as far as specific ones, find a well reviewed one on Amazon. Like this.

What tooth count was your current sproket? How well did it perform where you live? The 36t will be slower accelerating but have a higher max level ground speed; you'll also need to provide more pedal assist climbing steep hills. The 44t will accelerate faster and climb hills better but will have a lower max level ground speed.

Regardless of what sproket you get make sure it's made out of steel instead of aluminum.

NO NO NO NO NO Johnny...lol...lol.

That cheap POS sprocket in that amazon URL is an El Cheapo piece of stamped aluminum .

This is what a really good sprocket looks like, Chromed Steel...These are the ONLY sprockets I use.

The chromed steel ones are the ones that came with my kit lol. That one I linked to is the one I got, so far it's great. And I actually don't think it's aluminum, I'm pretty sure it's steel. May be wrong.

I wouldn't use that POS if it was the only sprocket I could ever get...lol...lol...lol.

Exactly my point Jerry...Those aluminum ones wear out in no time at all, maybe that is why the OP's sprocket is so badly worn like that picture of his is showing.

Yeah, it's a good sprocket. And I'm not the only one. Reviewers are happy, with the bad reviews being about the finish and it slowed them down or something.
