Good Afternoon,
I’ve been looking to replace my chain and sprockets while I have it apart. I cannot find much info on here besides ratio’s and such. I would like a lighter stock set up, possibly going to a 15t up front. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Never seen the front counter sprocket in alum' and don't think I would try it anyways with the size not being much of a weight saver, but rear sprockets good. I had a vortex and good results.

Chains Really need to go with the more expensive quality chains, or you will be adjusting as much as the stock chain. Here is the go-to in my opinion. Non-O-ring if you are saving weight

15Tcounter sprocket is great for daily commuting, it takes some of the jerkiness away when shifting but the taller gearing will actually slow your top speed and even more so if you go to basic 130/70 rear tire, unless you have the BBK set up.
