Maxfine 200 sprockets?

NoPlanB · 05-26-2009, 02:47 PM

I have a 2005 Maxfine 200.

Here's a link to a bike that looks 99% like mine.

http://www.deargabby.com/bikes/maxfine/

Seat is 2 tone & there is a yellow reflector on the front plastic which mine doesn't have. Otherwise looks exactly like mine which I bought on Ebay from Patterson's which is now defunct.

Anyway I'd like to change the sprockets so it will do better than 45-50 mph @7000 rpm. Currently it has a 51 tooth rear and a 17 tooth front.

I read another thread (started by Andi in 07) where member "RD" set his up so that all he had to do was change the front sprocket to go from offroad to highway quickly, which is exactly what I'd like to do.

I'm thinking change the rear to a 41 tooth and getting a 14 tooth front. Then I'd have the capability of 2 (quick & easy change) setups:

41R/17F - for highway
41R/14F - for off-road

I'm just not sure what bike mine is a clone of & where to start to get the new sprockets. I do have the sprockets off for measuring, tracing whatever if that would help.

I can go to http://www.pmpsprockets.com to have a rear custom made, not sure about the front. But the cost is of course more than buying off the shelf somewhere.

If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. :?:
