December 17, 20223 yr Hi Folks, this is probably rudimentary for some of you, but I just want to get it right. Bought a new PBI dished rear sprocket (428x55T) and replacing what was on the bike (flat with no spacer, 428x52T) as it came to me. So when installed, teeth are dished away or outward from (to the left) the wheel correct? Chain alignment looks straight to me this way. Searched the original manual and could not get a good visual or printed verification from it. BTW replacing 14/52 with a 13/55 and new chain setup. Will be used mainly for vintage trials and general plonking. Thanks in advance. Edited December 17, 20223 yr by Rdway60
