How to maintain the sprocket
The sprocket picks up dirt and grime very quickly. The reason for this is that there is fat on it. For this it is necessary that we clean it from time to time. To clean the sprocket, open its cover. After that, take an old toothbrush. Make a soapy solution in water and use a toothbrush to apply the soapy solution to the sprocket. Then clean it thoroughly by rubbing it with a brush. Completely remove old grease. When your sprocket is completely clean, wipe it down with a cloth and let it dry. After drying, apply grease again and put on the chain cover. Do this at least once a month to make your sprocket last longer.
How do you know if it’s bad?
The biggest sign of sprocket damage is chain slippage or sprocket noise. If this happens, have it replaced immediately. Sprocket life is 10,000-15,000 kilometers. However, it also depends on how you ride the bike and whether or not you have it serviced at the right time.
What is danger?
Gears and bearings are at greatest risk when the sprocket is damaged. Due to its damage, the gears can be damaged and the bearing can also be damaged. In such a situation, you may experience a burden. But at the same time, its spoilage is also dangerous. Because if the chain breaks while driving, it can lead to the rear tire locking. Sudden locking of the rear tire while the bicycle is moving can cause the vehicle to skid and cause an accident.
